Publisher Description An instant national bestseller, this powerful expose of sexism in Silicon Valley is now in paperback and updated with new material.Instant National BestsellerA PBS NewsHour-New York Times Book Club Pick"Excellent." -San Francisco ChronicleSilicon Valley is a modern utopia where anyone can change the world. Unless youre a woman.Its time to break up the boys club. Incisive, powerful, and a fierce rallying cry, Emily Chang shows us how to fix Silicon Valleys toxic culture--to bring down Brotopia, once and for all.Silicon Valley is not a fantasyland of unicorns, virtual reality rainbows, and 3D-printed lollipops for women in tech. Instead, its a "Brotopia," where men hold the cards and make the rules. While millions of dollars may seem to grow on trees in this land of innovation, techs aggressive, misogynistic, work-at-all costs culture has shut women out of the greatest wealth creation in the history of the world.Brotopia reveals how Silicon Valley got so sexist despite its utopian ideals, why bro culture endures even as its companies claim the moral high ground, and how women are speaking out and fighting back. Drawing on her deep network of Silicon Valley insiders, Chang opens the boardroom doors of male-dominated venture capital firms like Kleiner Perkins, the subject of Ellen Paos high-profile gender discrimination lawsuit, and Sequoia, where a partner once famously said they "wont lower their standards" just to hire women. Exposing the flawed logic in common excuses for why tech has long suffered the "pipeline" problem and invests in the delusion of meritocracy, Brotopia also shows how bias coded into AI, internet troll culture, and the reliance on pattern recognition harms not just women in tech but us all, and at unprecedented scale.
