Accidental Empires by Robert X Cringely
In the vein of Thomas Bass or Ed Regis, this book looks at the business of computing in the US, as computer science, as a business, and as a collection of extraordinary and eccentric characters. After automobiles, energy production and illegal drugs, personal computers are the largest manufacturing industry in the world and one of the great success stories for American business. This book argues that this success happened more-or-less by accident.| SKU | Unavailable |
