520    "The unbelievable true story of the young woman who faced 
       down one of the most valuable startups in Silicon Valley 
       history--and what came after. In 2017, twenty-five-year-
       old Susan Fowler published a blog post detailing the 
       sexual harassment and retaliation she'd experienced as an 
       entry-level engineer at Uber. The post went viral, leading
       not only to the ouster of Uber's CEO and twenty other 
       employees, but 'starting a bonfire on creepy sexual 
       behavior in Silicon Valley that . . . spread to Hollywood 
       and engulfed Harvey Weinstein' (Maureen Dowd, The New York
       Times). When Susan decided to share her story, she was 
       fully aware of the consequences most women faced for 
       speaking out about harassment prior to the #MeToo era. But,
       as her inspiring memoir, Whistleblower, reveals, this 
       courageous act was entirely consistent with Susan's young 
       life so far: a life characterized by extraordinary 
       determination, a refusal to accept things as they are, and
       the desire to do what is good and right. Growing up in 
       poverty in rural Arizona, she was denied a formal 
       education--yet went on to obtain an Ivy League degree. 
       When she was told, after discovering the pervasive culture
       of sexism, harassment, racism, and abuse at Uber, that she
       was the problem, she banded together with other women to 
       try to make change. When that didn't work, she went 
       public. She could never have anticipated the lengths to 
       which Uber would go in its efforts to intimidate and 
       discredit her, the impact her words would have on Silicon 
       Valley--and the world--or how they would set her on a 
       course toward finally achieving her dreams. The moving 
       story of a woman's lifelong fight to do what she loves--
       despite repeatedly being told no or treated as less-than--
       Whistleblower is both a riveting read and a source of 
       inspiration for anyone seeking to stand up against 
       inequality in their own workplace"--|cProvided by
