- Summary
- "Translated into more than twenty languages and named one of the best business books of 2007 by reviewers around the world, Wikinomics has become essential reading for businesspeople everywhere. It explains how mass collaboration is happening not just at Web sites like Wikipedia and YouTube, but also at traditional companies that have embraced technology to breathe new life into their enterprises." "Don Tapscott and Anthony Williams reveal the nuances that drive wikinomics and share fascinating stories of how masses of people (both paid and volunteer) are now creating TV news stories, sequencing the human genome, remixing their favorite music, designing software, finding cures for diseases, editing school texts, inventing new cosmetics, and even building motorcycles."--BOOK JACKET.
