Chip War reveals how we can’t make sense of politics, economics or technology today without first understanding the central role played by computer chips in shaping the modern world. But the West's lead in this area is under threat. At stake is America's military superiority and the economic prosperity of democratic nations.
Power in the modern world - military, economic, geopolitical - is built on a foundation of computer chips. America has maintained its lead as a superpower because it has dominated advances in computer chips and all the technology that chips have enabled. (Virtually everything runs on chips: cars, phones, the stock market, even the electric grid.) Now that edge is in danger of slipping, undermined by the naïve assumption that globalising the chip industry and letting players in Taiwan, Korea and Europe take over manufacturing serves America's interests. Currently, as Chip War reveals, China, which spends more on chips than any other product, is pouring billions into a chip-building Manhattan Project to catch up to the US.
In Chip War economic historian Chris Miller recounts the fascinating sequence of events that led to the United States perfecting chip design, and how faster chips helped defeat the Soviet Union (by rendering the Russians’ arsenal of precision-guided weapons obsolete). The battle to control this industry will shape our future. China spends more money importing chips than buying oil, and they are China's greatest external vulnerability as they are fundamentally reliant on foreign chips. But with 37 per cent of the global supply of chips being made in Taiwan, within easy range of Chinese missiles, the West's fear is that a solution may be close at hand.

Trade paperback. Condizione: Very good. Fifth printing [stated]. xxvii, [1], 421, [5] pages. Illustrations. Notes. Index. Front cover states Financial Times Business Book of the Year 2022 winner. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Chris Miller is Professor of International History, where his research focuses on technology, geopolitics, economics, international affairs, and Russia. He is author of Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology, a geopolitical history of the computer chip. He is the author of three other books on Russia, including Putinomics: Power and Money in Resurgent Russia; We Shall Be Masters: Russia's Pivots to East Asia from Peter the Great to Putin; and The Struggle to Save the Soviet Economy: Mikhail Gorbachev and the Collapse of the USSR. He has previously served as the Associate Director of the Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy at Yale, a lecturer at the New Economic School in Moscow, a visiting researcher at the Carnegie Moscow Center, a research associate at the Brookings Institution, and as a fellow at the German Marshall Fund's Transatlantic Academy. He received his Ph.D. and MA from Yale University and his BA in history from Harvard University. Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology is a 2022 nonfiction book written by Chris Miller, an economic historian and nonresident senior fellow at the conservative think-tank American Enterprise Institute. It tells about the transformation of the semiconductor into an essential component of contemporary life. Miller describes in detail some of the geopolitical battles. The book received the 2022 Financial Times Business Book of the Year award. Miller's book Chip War highlights how the creation of high-speed chips played an instrumental role in overcoming the Soviet Union by rendering their precision-guided weaponry ineffective. The quest for control in this industry is predicted to significantly influence future times. The book also emphasizes China's vulnerability due to its reliance on imported chips, noting that China's expenditure on chip importation exceeds its oil purchases. Financial Times journalist Demetri Sevastopulo commended the book for making a complex industry comprehensible. Sevastopulo appreciated Miller's detailed depiction of the chip industry's fluctuations, not just within the U.S., but also in Asian countries that control large portions of the supply chain for this indispensable technology. Global Policy evaluated Chip War as potentially the most comprehensive book on the microchip industry's geopolitics so far. The review acknowledged Miller's wide-ranging coverage, from the industry's modest origins in Silicon Valley to its current state of "weaponized interdependence", concentrated primarily near the Taiwan Strait. Barry Eichengreen, writing for Foreign Affairs, noted that Miller displays a smooth storytelling style. However, he completed the book prior to the implementation of recent U.S. policies that aim to restrict China's access to advanced chip-making technology. Eichengreen also pointed out that the book doesn't draw conclusions on the potential effectiveness of U.S. export controls in curbing the growth of China's semiconductor industry, or whether these measures might simply provoke China into intensifying its support for the industry or even taking forceful action against Taiwan. Greg Mankiw writing on his blog stated that the book: "It is a fascinating history of the semiconductor industry. Relevant for not only economics but also geopolitics. Highly recommended.".
