An amazing 800 pages (including nearly 300 pages of rare, never before seen photos, memos and court documents), this book details Atari's genesis from an idea between an engineer and a visionary in 1969 to a nearly $2 billion dollar juggernaut, and ending with a $538 million death spiral during 1984.

* The creation of "Rick Rats Big Cheese Restaurants" which later became "Chuck E. Cheese's"

* How Atari Inc. faltered and took down an entire industry with it before being put on the chopping block.
