Answer:
I do not know if there are specific books out there for employees. I have read only one book about Google - "The Google Story" by David A. Vise. (I picked it up from a second hand shop a few years ago.) It tells the story of how PhD candidates Larry Page and Sergey Brin started the company because nobody wanted to buy their search engine for US$1 million - so they could get back to doing their studies. I know anybody interested in business or technology would benefit from reading the book. I also feel that an employee, after reading the book, would appreciate working for one of the best technology companies in the world.
