FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Review "A careful, detailed teardown of the people, culture and technology behind the worlds most dynamic social network, TikTok. It is rare for a business analysis to read like a thriller - this one does." -- Azeem Azhar, Founder, Exponential View"In TikTok Boom, Stokel-Walker matches the unparalleled breadth and scale of growth of the Chinese platform with remarkable depth and spectacular wisdom. Blending journalistic narrative with state-of-the-art academic research, no other author comes close to weaving this epic tale of the rise of Chinas first global platform threatening Silicons Valley hegemony while operating as inflection point around the rise of one globe two Internet systems. This is a must read for students, scholars, and policy makers." -- David Craig, Clinical Professor, USC Annenberg"Its clear that Stokel-Walkers strength is that hes not just TikTok-literate, hes TikTok-fluent. He knows the product, the people, and the entire ecosystem inside and out, and it is this familiarity that makes his telling so compelling, because he knows how to make you feel like you, too, are an insider in this strange new world." -- Rui Ma, founder, Tech Buzz China"This book charts the story of an app on the rise thats changing the world of tech, charting the future of culture, and creating a new world of work: the creator economy... it breaks down some of the biggest questions for the future of work and culture." -- Li Jin, Atelier Ventures"TikTok is perhaps the fastest growing and most addictive social media tool yet created.
