IT IS NOT TRUE THAT SILICON VALLEY
WAS BORN IN SILICON VALLEY
A complete and well-documented history for scholars and enthusiasts
A lucid, passionate, and deeply human account of the birth of the contemporary technological world, seen from the inside through the eyes of one of its direct witnesses.
From the invention of
the transistor in 1947 to the birth of the microprocessor; from integrated circuits to
Moore’s Law; from the space race to the global spread of computers and
smartphones, and all the way to artificial intelligence,
The author leads the reader into the laboratories, factories, and streets of what would become Silicon Valley and the decisive role played by figures such as William Shockley, Robert Noyce, Gordon Moore, Federico Faggin, Steve Jobs, and many others.
The book addresses highly topical issues: the relationship between complexity and intelligence, the limits of artificial intelligence, the difference between computation and consciousness, and the possible future consequences of technological evolution.
