The Big Switch: Rewiring the World, from Edison to Google
Magisterial...Draws an elegant and illuminating parallel between the late-19th-century electrification of America and today's computing world.” —SalonHailed as the most influential book so far on the cloud computing movement” (Christian Science Monitor), The Big Switch makes a simple and profound statement: Computing is turning into a utility, and the effects of this transition will ultimately change society as completely as the advent of cheap electricity did. In a new chapter for this edition that brings the story up-to-date, Nicholas Carr revisits the dramatic new world being conjured from the circuits of the World Wide Computer.”
