"A chemist and founder of Intel, Gordon Moore played a major role in revolutionizing technology and shaping the growth and reach of Silicon Valley.

[In this book], Arnold Thackray sheds light on Gordon Moore, gives context to the technologies and world of high-tech power he helped to develop, and provides [an] ... introduction to the history and science of the silicon transistor, the technological building block that has transformed commercial business, defense strategies, and the everyday lives of individuals around the globe"--
