“Riveting and explosive.” – Christopher Leonard

From veteran Amazon reporter for The Wall Street Journal, The Everything War is the first untold, devastating exposé of Amazon's endless strategic greed, from destroying Main Street to remaking corporate power, in pursuit of total domination, by any means necessary.

In 2017, Lina Khan published a paper that accused Amazon of being a monopoly, having grown so large, and embedded in so many industries, it was akin to a modern-day Standard Oil. Unlike Rockefeller’s empire, however, Bezos’s company had grown voraciously without much scrutiny. In fact, for over twenty years, Amazon had emerged as a Wall Street darling and its “customer obsession” approach made it indelibly attractive to consumers across the globe. But the company was not benevolent; it operated in ways that ensured it stayed on top. Lina Khan’s paper would light a fire in Washington, and in a matter of years, she would become the head of the FTC. In 2023, the FTC filed a monopoly lawsuit against Amazon in what may become one of the largest antitrust cases in the 21st century.

With unparalleled access, and having interviewed hundreds of people – from Amazon executives to competitors to small businesses who rely on its marketplace to survive – Mattioli exposes how Amazon was driven by a competitive edge to dominate every industry it entered, bulldozed all who stood in its way, reshaped the retail landscape, transformed how Wall Street evaluates companies, and altered the very nature of the global economy. It has come to control most of online retail, and uses its own sellers’ data to compete with them through Amazon’s own private label brands. Millions of companies and governmental agencies use AWS, paying hefty fees for the service. And, the company has purposefully avoided collecting taxes for years, exploited partners, and even copied competitors—leveraging its power to extract whatever it can, at any cost. It has continued to gain market share in disparate areas, from media to logistics and beyond. Most companies dominate one or two industries; Amazon now leads in several. And all of this was by design.

The Everything War is the definitive, inside story of how it grew into one of the most powerful and feared companies in the world – and why this lawsuit opens a window into the most consequential business story of our times.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Riveting, shocking, and full of revelations, The Everything War is the thrilling account of how Amazon redefined corporate power, and did so with a single minded focus on rolling over the competition in its pursuit for dominance. This one could be a classic.”

—Bryan Burrough, co-author of Barbarians at the Gate and Forget the Alamo
"An unflinching expose of thuggish strategies employed by Amazon—tactics that not only hobble competitors, exploit paying customers, but also cripple aspiring start-ups that make the mistake of sharing product secrets, only to find Amazon knock-offs sold on the consumer monolith’s website."—Jacquie McNish, co-author of Losing the Signal: The Untold Story Behind the Extraordinary Rise and Spectacular Fall of BlackBerry
"A riveting and explosive work of investigative reporting that will stand as a classic. Dana Mattioli has managed to unearth the deepest secrets of the world’s most powerful retailer, bringing it all into the daylight in vivid detail. Every page is revelatory and the characters—from the domineering billionaire CEO, to the brilliant 30-something trustbuster in Washington who pursues him—seem like they’ve walked straight out of a novel. This is the business story of our time."—Christopher Leonard, New York Times bestselling author of Kochland and The Lords of Easy Money
"Dana Mattioli’s The Everything War is a masterful expose of a corporate leviathan’s relentless drive for power. Her incisive writing and thorough reporting takes you behind a global juggernaut’s seemingly innocuous facade. You will never look at those little cardboard boxes on your doorstep the same way again."—Zeke Faux, author of Number Go Up: Inside Crypto's Wild Rise and Staggering Fall

Oh, the irony of reading this book on Audible, owned by Amazon. It's hard to escape the monopoly of Amazon these days. I learned a lot from this book and it definitely made me think differently about this company, which I already had a low opinion of. The corporate espionage and espionage of internal data were particularly damning chapters. I have always been a seldom Amazon shopper, and now I will probably shop even less.

Very informative

Although I found this story informative it took a lot of critical evaluation because this book overall more fiction than non. Every chapter has multiple hypocritical perspectives, in the former they'll criticize a behavior in the latter though praise that same behavior when another company does it. The same standard of evaluation is never upheld the contradictions is non-ending. Should we be wary of a company like Amazon that might be unethical? Of course. Do we limiting unethical Behavior by being hypocritical and just plain misinterpreting with hostility the audience that they should not like something? Isn't intentionally misrepresenting the story bad? The narrator took on intonations that would imply meaning that would not be president without the intentional. It would also deceptive writing when a quote is taken from a disgruntled / anti Amazon personality the quote will be presented in normal speech ending with said one "x" whereas an Amazon quote always started with a negative intonation amazon claimed or later claimed. It also used the lack of commentary as evident of misbehavior which goes against every functional brain cell of a person who can critically think especially when an interview can be misinterpreted and manipulated like this author did.

There's no winning with this author amazon does not participate in Washington lobbying "that's not normal corporate Behavior" . Amazon despite every effort to not was forced to start lobbying Washington look at this look look look look look they're bribing now. This no win situation means that if you participate your body if you do not participate why aren't you participating well which is it do you want them to participate or not
