DESCRIPTION:
Noyce, the most respected high tech figure of his generation, brought credibility (and money) to the company’s founding; Moore made Intel the world’s technological leader; and Grove, has relentlessly driven the company to ever-higher levels of success and competitiveness. Based on unprecedented access to the corporation’s archives, The Intel Trinity is the first full history of Intel Corporation—the essential company of the digital age— told through the lives of the three most important figures in the company’s history: Robert Noyce, Gordon Moore, and Andy Grove.Often hailed the “most important company in the world,” Intel remains, more than four decades after its inception, a defining company of the global digital economy. Michael S. Malone reveals how each brought different things to Intel, and at different times. The legendary inventors of the microprocessor-the single most important product in the modern world-Intel today builds the tiny “engines” that power almost every intelligent electronic device on the planet.But the true story of Intel is the human story of the trio of geniuses behind it. Without any one of these figures, Intel would never have achieved its historic success; with them, Intel made possible the personal computer, Internet, telecommunications, and the personal electronics revolutions.The Intel Trinity is not just the story of Intel’s legendary past; it also offers an anal

Real title: the intel unity: Grove, the living-god NO The amount of real underlying information about Intel in this book is around what one can find in Wikipedia.I specially disliked the annoying overburden of adjectives (most, best, greatest, . constantly repeated), half the book's pages are straight adulation (and the same, again and again), it becomes frustrating to read, seems the author was paid only on the adulating phrases.The narration goes back and forth in time, so that you find a chapter talking about 1997, and then . "Pretty damn good!" according to S. Witten. This is not the best book about Silicon Valley that Mike Malone has written. It is, however, a great read -- which is what you want from a good book! There have been criticisms in this column that the book is "Grove heavy" and "Moore light". That's certainly true.However, the context is that Gordon Moore was the Spirit -- ethereal and above it allthe giver of the Law.I enjoyed this book very much Having lived through most of the story but watching from afar from my desk at H
Federico Faggin, an Italian American physicist who led the design group of the first commercial microprocessor, is profiled as one of the “greatest inventors of the century,” one example of how Malone gives long-overdue credit to the unsung heroes and inventors for their contributions. a risky start-up that was transformed into the most successful technology company of the computer age through the invention of the “computer on a chip” we know as the microprocessor. --David Siegfried . The time line is a familiar one to many technology buffs, but Malone moves past the standard Intel mythology to uncover many aspects of the company’s ascendance that have be
