Book Description

February 15, 2001
It's predicted that 70% of the Internet companies that went public in the late nineties will not survive to see 2002.

For the swarms of dot-com investors who have heard this wake-up call -- and who are wondering how to protect their "net" future -- there's finally a book that does more than just describe sensational "Net excess" or argue the reality of dot-com stock overvaluation.

Net Value takes an insightful, pragmatic look at the dot-com phenomena, its impending downfall, and the likely repercussions for individual and institutional investors, the economy, and the Internet itself. Immensely readable and packed with keen observations, this book helps readers answer the following questions:
-- What factors are contributing to the coming dot-com crash?
-- How do you measure the viability of an Internet-based business?
-- What kind of Net companies are best positioned to survive the eventual shakeout?
-- How will employees be affected by the crash?
-- How will the crash impact the growth and development of the Net?

Far from being just another "bubble" book, Net Value offers a balanced, thoughtful treatment of the IPO feeding frenzy -- and shows readers how to make it through unscathed.

This review is from: Net Value: Valuing Dot-Com Companies - Uncovering the Reality Behind the Hype (Hardcover)
Clark and Neill have done it again. With a combination of clarity and foresight spiced with humor, Net Value is a guide book for looking at tomorrows investing today. For an insightful and revealing look at the value of Internet-related stocks, this book is excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Debunks Net of the bubble era, describes what 's next, March 13, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Net Value: Valuing Dot-Com Companies - Uncovering the Reality Behind the Hype (Hardcover)
In depth and insightful and yet funny (such as when 'Bubba GreaterFool' gets blindsided by the Great February Massacre) NET VALUE explodes the myths of Internbet valuation and the dead-on-arrival business models that such hallucinations spawn. Neill and Clark explore what comes next, how to tell the few future Net winners from the dross, and how much further the Nasdaq must plunge before a sustainable base for future success is built. 'The best is yet to come', but only for the Net's survivor-champions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny yet serious!, March 17, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Net Value: Valuing Dot-Com Companies - Uncovering the Reality Behind the Hype (Hardcover)
This book is timely, up-to-date and makes some predictions which are proving to be amazingly accurate. Its tounge-in-cheek prose makes for a great read - I have a much better understanding of the dotcom land after reading this - highy recommended
