10/12/12 review of book Crystal Fire, by Michael Riordan and Lillian Hoddeson

As I've mentioned in previous posts, I recently decided to go back to the very beginning of my time on Twitter to find my earliest reviews.

This is probably only my fourth review of a book on Twitter. I review Crystal Fire: The Birth of the Information Age, by Michael Riordan and Lillian Hoddeson.

The review is only one tweet long. Here is the tweet.

Finished reading Crystal Fire, a history of the transistor. Good read. Interesting people: Shockley, Bardeen, Brattain, and Bell Labs.

Here is the link to W.W. Norton's edition of Crystal Fire.

Also, I checked this book out at the Jefferson County Public Library in Colorado.
