The Chip: How Two Americans Invented the Microchip and Launched a Revolution T.R. Reid Barely 50 years ago, computers were gargantuan, expensive things that only a handful of scientists had ever seen. The world's brightest engineers couldn't even make them small and affordable, until Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce hit upon the stunning discovery that would lead to the silicon microchip and earn Kilby a Nobel Prize in physics in 2000. T. R. Reid tells the story of the chip, of how our digital age began, and of the men who invented it. |
