520    An engrossing, insider's account of how a teacher built 
       one of the world's most valuable companies - rivaling 
       Walmart and Amazon - and forever reshaped the global 
       economy. In just a decade and half Jack Ma, a man from 
       modest beginnings who started out as an English teacher, 
       founded and built Alibaba into one of the world's largest 
       companies, an e-commerce empire on which hundreds of 
       millions of Chinese consumers depend. Alibaba's $25 
       billion IPO in 2014 was the largest global IPO ever. A 
       Rockefeller of his age who is courted by CEOs and 
       Presidents around the world, Jack is an icon for China's 
       booming private sector and the gatekeeper to hundreds of 
       millions of middle class consumers. Duncan Clark first met
       Jack in 1999 in the small apartment where Jack founded 
       Alibaba. Granted unprecedented access to a wealth of new 
       material including exclusive interviews, Clark draws on 
       his own experience as an early advisor to Alibaba and two 
       decades in China chronicling the Internet's impact on the 
       country to create an authoritative, compelling narrative 
       account of Alibaba's rise. How did Jack overcome his 
       humble origins and early failures to achieve massive 
       success with Alibaba? How did he outsmart rival 
       entrepreneurs from China and Silicon Valley? Can Alibaba 
       maintain its 80% market share? As it forges ahead into 
       finance and entertainment, are there limits to Alibaba's 
       ambitions? How does the Chinese government view its rise? 
       Will Alibaba expand further overseas, including in the 
       U.S.? Clark tells Alibaba's tale in the context of China's
       momentous economic and social changes, illuminating an 
       unlikely corporate titan as never before.
