The valley of heart's delight

the long version

"Between the end of World War II and the turn of the century - a little lush valley in the hills of California known for its orange groves completed a remarkable transformation to become the center of the technological world. Home to most of the nation's most important high-tech companies, Silicon Valley became the point of confluence for our most daring entrepreneurs, most powerful corporations, and most innovative thinkers.". "No one knows more about Silicon Valley than Mike Malone. The first journalist assigned full time to the Valley's tech beat, Malone has covered the Valley from the back streets to the boardrooms and everywhere in between for over twenty years.". "In The Valley of Heart's Delight, news stories, essays, and feature pieces from Malone's long and renowned career illuminate the past, the present, and the future of the Valley with the skill, care, and insight of both a journalist and a Valley local."--BOOK JACKET.
