Summary "Tony Hsieh--CEO of Zappos, Las Vegas developer, and all-around beloved entrepreneur--was famous for spreading happiness. When Hsieh died suddenly in November of 2020, Wall Street Journal reporters Kirsten Grind and Katherine Sayre quickly realized the importance of the story because of Hsieh's stature in the industry, but as they dug into the details of his final months, they realized there was a bigger story to tell. They found that Hsieh's obsession with happiness masked his darker struggles with addiction, mental health, and loneliness"--Provided by publisher.
