What is the magic formula for turning a place into a high-tech capital? How can a city or region become a high-tech powerhouse like Silicon Valley? This book examines why high-tech development became so economically important late in the twentieth century, and why its magic formula of people, jobs, and capital has been so difficult to replicate.
