SUMMARY:Author Event: Jonathan Weber - City on the Edge
DESCRIPTION:Word on the Street Books invites you to a special evening with Jonathan Weber\, author of City on the Edge: Technology\, Politics and the Fight for the Soul of San Francisco. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout City on the Edge\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe story of the San Francisco’s dramatic transformation from an eclectic post-industrial melting pot to the global capital of technology\, and how the same creative and political forces that gave rise to its boom nearly engineered its collapse. \n\n\n\nAt the dawn of the 1990s\, San Francisco was a beautiful if troubled mid-sized metropolis. The mythic\, fog-shrouded city at the edge of the continent was still reeling from the AIDS epidemic and the Loma Prieta earthquake\, its boom-and-bust economy stuck in a long decline. Once the undisputed capital of the American West\, and later the beating heart of the global counterculture\, San Francisco faced an uncertain future.But in that very moment\, a band of free-thinking technology enthusiasts was immersing itself in the unique creative zeitgeist of the city\, and inventing the contemporary internet. The companies they spawned would change the way we work\, play\, socialize and engage in politics. San Francisco would undergo a transformation unlike any in modern American history\, becoming an economic and cultural juggernaut that could fairly claim the title of tech capital of the world. Local politicians like Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris advanced to the national stage\, while an unlikely union of underground culture and technological optimism gave rise to the annual reverie known as Burning Man.This should have been a happy story for San Francisco. But while the city’s tech economy roared\, a host of urban ills lurked in the shadows: homelessness\, drug addiction\, mental illness\, and a crippling lack of new housing. The city’s famously liberal political establishment struggled to get its arms around the mounting problems in the streets\, becoming a punching bag for President Trump and the new right. When the pandemic arrived in 2020\, it didn’t just create new crises but laid old ones bare\, and shattered a “City Family” that had ruled for thirty years. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Jonathon Weber\n\n\n\n\n\nReporter and newsroom leader Jonathan Weber was an eyewitness to these events. He offers a sweeping history of a city that rose to dizzying heights\, only to be all but undone by the heedlessness of a tech industry it did so much to spawn\, and politicians who had lost the plot. Drawing on some two hundred interviews with elected officials\, CEOs\, activists\, investors\, artists\, and beyond\, City on the Edge is more than a simple chronicle of a city. It’s the story of a war waged for the heart of San Francisco—one that both anticipated and reflected the culture wars raging around the world. Its outcome would have an impact far beyond the city’s famed Golden Gates. \n\n\n\nJonathan Weber was named the Los Angeles Times’s first-ever Silicon Valley reporter in 1990. He was later editor in chief of The Industry Standard\, which chronicled—and lived—the first dot-com boom. He served as editor in chief of The Bay Citizen\, a local news non-profit\, and oversaw West Coast news and global technology coverage for Reuters. He was most recently the founding editor in chief of The San Francisco Standard. He holds a B.A. in Philosophy from Wesleyan University. \n\n\n\nPress\n\n\n\n“A well-informed\, granular account of San Francisco’s history since 1990\, and a portrait of how it has served as a microcosm of some of the fundamental changes occurring in U.S. society during that time… With all its triumphs and travails\, it is impossible to leave this account without a strong sense that what Weber calls the ‘boom-and-bust cycles’ of San Francisco life are destined to repeat yet again.”—Shelf Awareness \n\n\n\n\n“To understand the San Francisco of today\, you can’t do better than Jonathan Weber’s chronicle of its recent decades of euphoria and disillusion. In his fast-paced narrative\, Weber shrewdly navigates the city’s volatile juxtaposition of transformational innovation and intractable social ills. City on the Edge is a captivating story of iron-willed idealists\, inventors\, activists\, and power players who shaped San Francisco’s contentious character\, altered how we all live and work\, and inflamed the most fractious political debates of our time.”—Marty Baron\, author of Collision of Power and former executive editor of The Washington Post \n\n\n\n\n\n“Jonathan Weber tells the story of San Francisco’s internet era as someone who was there and who knows everyone. He digs deep into tech\, culture\, and politics\, revealing much that was never well known and much which has been forgotten. City on the Edge offers a story that affects the world and human history.”—Craig Newmark\, founder of Craigslist

SUMMARY:Author Event: Paulina Borsook – Cyberselfish
DESCRIPTION:Word on the Street Books invites you to a special evening with Paulina Borsook\, author of Cyberselfish: A Critical Romp through the Terribly Libertarian Culture of High Tech. Help us celebrate the new edition of her critically acclaimed 2000 book that’s truer now than when it came out in 2000.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Cyberselfish\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTwenty-six years after its original publication\, Borsook’s “smart\, funny and irreverent” (The New York Times) critique of high-tech has proved a prescient assessment of a toxic ethos which has seeped into every corner of our world. \n\n\n\nCyberselfish saw the warning signs about a culture violently lacking in compassion\, tremendously opposed to regulation\, more comfortable with computers than people\, and surprisingly ignorant. An ironic position\, given this cohort was perhaps the single biggest recipient of the greatest government subsidy of technology and expansion in history. But it is also a culture that believes in Ayn Rand and the stockholder theory of value and acts as if privacy isn’t for the Little People. \n\n\n\nBorsook foresaw that once tech boomed to new heights of financial success\, those at the helm would feel their achievement in one sphere should result in greater power and influence in others. Today\, as titans of the tech world have inserted themselves even further into all aspects of society\, Borsook’s insights have become more universally applicable than even she could have imagined. But what will result if the people who shape public policy know nothing about history or political science or\, most importantly\, how to interact with other humans? Cyberselfish posits this is the true revenge of the nerds. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Paulina Borsook\n\n\n\n\n\nBorsook has worked in and around Northern California tech culture since the early 1980s. Formerly on the masthead of Wired\, she has written for multiple tech publications and companies and for countless non-tech publications. She is currently a contributing editor for the magazine “InFormation/every day computers are making people easier to use”\, which offers both silly and serious critiques of tech as written by people within it. \n\n\n\nPress\n\n\n\n“The Writer Who Dared Criticize Silicon Valley”– New York Times Article \n\n\n\n“She Warned About Silicon Valley 25 Years Ago. We Ignored Her”– The Nerd Reich Article \n\n\n\n“A Tech Prophet Finally Gets Her Second Coming”– Mother Jones

SUMMARY:Book Signing at Grounded Coffee with Author Chell-Linn Araya
DESCRIPTION:Turn the Page at Ground Coffee\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us at Grounded Coffee (53 Wright Brothers Ave\, Livermore) for an intimate morning with Chell-Linn Araya\, author of Don’t Play with Matches and Don’t Talk to Strangers. Chell-Linn will be selling copies.  \n\n\n\nChell-Linn will be on hand to sign copies\, share the story behind the story\, and answer your burning questions. The Word on the Street Book Truck will be parked outside\, so come early\, browse the shelves. \n\n\n\nThis is the kind of event that makes a Saturday morning feel like a chapter worth writing. Don’t miss it. \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Author Chell-Linn Araya\n\n\n\nChell~Linn Araya steps into the spotlight after years of crafting compelling narratives for others. While a career as the first female quarterback for the 49ers proved unattainable\, Araya’s lifelong dream of authorship was realized during the pandemic. Araya’s journey began with audiobook narration before successfully transitioning to ghostwriting\, where she spent approximately three years honing her craft. \n\n\n\nAraya’s debut indie-published novel\, released last May\, launched the Detective Shawna Valentine series. The series follows a resilient female detective who is navigating multiple sclerosis while dedicatedly protecting her coastal community. Though the town of Seaside is fictitious\, local readers will be thrilled to recognize several landmarks from the Livermore area\, grounding the stories in a familiar setting. \n\n\n\nKnown for “real” characters and antagonists who are “just plain creepy\,” Araya delivers twisty plots filled with actual clues\, ensuring the mysteries lead to satisfying conclusions without relying on sudden surprise endings. Araya is passionate about connecting with readers face-to-face and is delighted to be at today’s signing.
