| 內容簡介 | "The United States is the source of just about all the technologies that define modern life: personal computers, operating systems, smartphones, e-commerce, web browsers, email, search engines, social networks, electric cars, and the rest. And most of the tech companies that created and monetized these technologies are also in the US. In this book, Mehran Gul asks, is that changing? . . . This is a story about technology and the places where it finds its way into the world. Silicon Valley has for half a century been unrivalled in spinning out technologies and fast-growing, high-value, billion-dollar-plus tech companies--the Apples, Facebooks, Googles of the world--that made it the center for the most rapid creation of wealth in human history. Its secrets are spreading. The world has more high-value tech companies than ever before, growing faster than ever before, in more places than ever before. The geography of innovation is shifting." -- Jacket flap. |
