			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ben Mezrich, best selling author of &quot;Bringing Down the House&quot; about a group of MIT students burning Las Vegas casinos by developing a system to win at blackjack, says his next book will be about Facebook.</p>
<p>&quot;My next book is about the kids who founded Facebook,&quot; Mezrich told the <a href="http://www.bostonherald.com/business/technology/general/view/2008_12_14_Boston_author_Ben_Mezrich_pens_tale_of_Facebook_s_founders/" title="Facebook movie book">Boston Herald</a>. The book is scheduled to be released in fall of 2009 by Doubleday. Mezrich also confirmed that prominent screenwriter Aaron Sorkin has signed on to make the book into a movie.</p>
<p><a href="http://benmezrich.com/news/"><img align="left" src="http://images.ientrymail.com/webpronews/article_pics/ben-mezrich.jpg" alt="Ben Mezrich" title="Ben Mezrich" style="margin: 10px;" /></a>Mezrich says the book will focus on entrepreneurship at Harvard and on Mark Zuckerberg who has yet to speak with the author.</p>
<p>The book will also be about Harvard&#8217;s Final Clubs, which are like secret societies, or elite clubs at other Ivy League schools.</p>
<p>In May, Gawker reported that Mezrich had signed a million dollar book deal for his story of Zuckerberg and the other <a href="http://www.facebook.com" title="Facebook book movie ">Facebook</a> founders. According to the report the book focuses on Zuckerberg and his roommate Eduardo Saverin, developing a program called FaceSmash to rate Harvard women based on their looks.</p>
<p>Mezrich says what was reported by Gakwer was not all true. &quot;That&#8217;s not what the book is about. What is Gawker even doing writing something about me?&quot;</p>
<p>The Facebook story will be Mezrich 11th book.<br />&nbsp;</p>
