How to Rule the World: An Education in Power at Stanford University

by Theo Baker

Theo Baker's How to Rule the World follows a tech-obsessed teenager who arrived at Stanford expecting paradise and ended up, as a freshman reporter, breaking the story that toppled the university president. It's a sharp, funny, sometimes anxious account of how elite institutions sort and groom their next generation of insiders.
