Richard branson se pro mladou generaci 70. až 90. let 20. století stal ztělesněním podnikatelského instinktu a mimořádně sympatickým vzorem úspěšného obchodníka. Bransonův životopis z pera Micka Browna se na Západě stal bestsellerem. Se smyslem pro napětí autor sleduje také Bransonovu misi na záchranu rukojmích zadržovaných po irácké invazi do Kuvajtu, líčí jeho riskantní výpravy horkovzdušným balonem přes Atlantský a Tichý oceán a vydává svědectví o bitvě letecké společnosti Virgin s British Airways. Zejména však zprostředkovává blízké svědectví o Bransonových svérázných obchodních praktikách a jeho osbním stylu, díky němuž vznikl pověstný "fenomén Branson".
