Requests:  0 Summary:  "In Palo Alto, the first comprehensive, global history of Silicon Valley, Malcolm Harris examines how and why Northern California evolved in the particular, consequential way it did, tracing the ideologies, technologies, and policies that have been engineered there over the course of 150 years of Anglo settler colonialism, from IQ tests to the "tragedy of the commons," racial genetics, and "broken windows" theory. The Internet and computers, too. It's a story about how a small American suburb became a powerful engine for economic growth and war, and how it came to lead the world into a surprisingly disastrous 21st century"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 338.47609 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 338.47609 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 338.47609 Harris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Floating Collection 338.47609 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 338.47609 Ha Checked out 06/28/2024 Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 338.47609 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
