SynopsisIn an age of hookups and cybersex, who has time for a little romance? For all those who think love's gone the way of the 8-track tape comes a collection of new gay fiction designed to reignite their belief in love and romance. Follow the travails of a dog walker enchanted with his new client, a restaurant owner who catches the eye of his most loyal customer, a blind date fix-up, and other seekers of the lost flame as they stumble upon romance and a possible chance at love. Showcasing new work from some of today's best-known gay writers, including Trebor Healey, Felice Picano, Joel Derfner, Andrew Holleran, and Greg Herren, the stories in Fool for Love are a funny, sweet, and sometimes wrenching reminder of the joy romance brings to the human heart., This is the definitive investigation of the most important business story of our time. In riveting style, Pride Before the Fall uncovers the truth behind the headlines -- including the hidden roles of Silicon Valley's most powerful men in shattering Microsoft's aura of invincibility and the climate of fear that held an industry in its thrall. Heilemann's groundbreaking book is based on extensive and exclusive interviews with Bill Gates and his second-in-command at Microsoft, Steve Ballmer; the Justice Department's then-assistant attorney general Joel Klein; chief government counsel David Boies; Intel chairman Andy Grove and other leading high-tech executives; and scores of lesser-known but pivotal players. Heilemann details exactly how the high-tech kingpins whose companies Gates tried to destroy or strong-arm (Netscape, Apple, Sun Microsystems, even Intel) worked behind the scenes to help the government bring Microsoft down. And he explores the lasting damage that the trial has inflicted on the first great empire of the new economy.
