Synopsis
An eye-opening look at the new computer revolution and the coming transformation of our economy, society, and culture., An eye-opening look at the new computer revolution and the coming transformation of our economy, society, and culture. A hundred years ago, companies stopped producing their own power with steam engines and generators and plugged into the newly built electric grid. The cheap power pumped out by electric utilities not only changed how businesses operated but also brought the modern world into existence. Today a similar revolution is under way. Companies are dismantling their private computer systems and tapping into rich services delivered over the Internet. This time it's computing that's turning into a utility. The shift is already remaking the computer industry, bringing new competitors like Google to the fore and threatening traditional stalwarts like Microsoft and Dell. But the effects will reach much further. Cheap computing will ultimately change society as profoundly as cheap electricity did. In this lucid and compelling book, Nicholas Carr weaves together history, economics, and technology to explain why computing is changing--and what it means for all of us., A hundred years ago, companies stopped producing their own power with steam engines and generators and plugged into the newly built electric grid.

I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
- .***m (89)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaFor some reason, the Postal Tracking stopped after the label was created, but I RECEIVED the book I ordered on August 2nd which was within the 7/31 to 8/6 projected delivery range. The sale price was lower than the competition why I chose this Seller. It was well packed, and arrived in the described condition. I would do business, again, with this Seller without hesitation. Thumbs UP!Fierce Eden by (#126990098849)
- 0***0 (139)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaAnother wonderful transaction with this company! I believe this is my 3rd purchase with multiple books in each order and I’ve yet to be disappointed. Books arrived as described - great used condition. Packaging wasn’t great but it’s free shipping and they made it to me intact, so no complaints. The price is unbeatable. Will definitely continue to purchase from them! Highly recommend.My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry by Fredrik Backman (#297449436378)
