Thought provoking. Chandler develops the history of the consumer electronics and computer industries with the questioning attitude of a teacher: always searching for the lessons behind the story.
-- Andrew S. Grove, Chairman of the Board, Intel

Offers a rich cast of characters and companies, compelling stories, and deep understanding of economic forces.
