New book explores Stanford's ties with Silicon Valley

Season 2026 Episode 105 | 8m 52s

While most college freshmen spend their first year shopping around courses and picking their majors, Theo Baker had a bit more on his plate. As a reporter for the Stanford Daily, he investigated research misconduct, leading to the resignation of President Marc Tessier-Lavigne. Baker sat down with Amna Nawaz to discuss his new book, “How to Rule the World."
