Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology - Miller Chris - książka
Producent: Simon & Schuster
An engaging narrative explores the prolonged struggle for dominance over microchip technology, now regarded as the world's most vital resource, as tensions rise between the United States and China. It may come as a surprise to many that microchips are essentially the new oil, serving as the cornerstone of the modern world. The functioning of almost every aspect of life today—ranging from military assets and economic systems to everyday gadgets like cars and smartphones—relies heavily on these tiny yet powerful components. Once leading the world in both designing and manufacturing the fastest chips, the United States now faces the threat of its supremacy being challenged by Taiwan, Korea, and Europe advancing their manufacturing capacities. As detailed in "Chip War," China is determined to bridge this gap by investing billions in chip production, aiming to compete with the United States both militarily and economically. Economic historian Chris Miller dives into the ascent of the semiconductor and how it became indispensable in modern society, illustrating the U.S.'s rise to prominence in chip innovation, which fueled its Cold War victory and global military power. Despite America's previous technological edge, China's concerted efforts in chip development and military enhancement signify a narrowing gap. The relinquishment of certain advanced chip manufacturing processes by the U.S. has precipitated a worldwide shortage and the emergence of a new Cold War with a formidable global competitor. Through its illuminating and insightful narrative, "Chip War" underscores the necessity of understanding the pivotal role of chips to grasp the complex interplay of current global politics, economics, and technology.
