Description
An epic account of the decades-long battle to control what has emerged as the world’s most critical resource—microchip technology—with the United States and China increasingly in conflict.
You may be surprised to learn that microchips are the new oil—the scarce resource on which the modern world depends. Today, military, economic, and geopolitical power are built on a foundation of computer chips. Virtually everything—from missiles to microwaves—runs on chips, including cars, smartphones, the stock market, even the electric grid. Until recently, America designed and built the fastest chips and maintained its lead as the number one superpower, but America’s edge is in danger of slipping, undermined by players in Taiwan, Korea, and Europe taking over manufacturing. Now, as Chip War reveals, China, which spends more on chips than any other product, is pouring billions into a chip-building initiative to catch up to the US. At stake is America’s military superiority and economic prosperity.
Economic historian Chris Miller explains how the technology works and why it’s so important, recounting the fascinating events that led to the United States perfecting the chip design, and to America’s victory in the Cold War by using faster chips to render the Soviet Union’s arsenal of precision-guided weapons obsolete. But lately, America has let key components of the chip-building process slip out of its grasp, leading to a worldwide chip shortage and a new war brewing with a superpower adversary that is desperate to bridge the gap.
Illuminating, timely, and fascinating, Chip War shows that, to make sense of the current state of politics, economics, and technology, we must first understand the vital role played by chips.

Great history, but could poor narration
excellent background on an increasingly important sector. His explanation on the technology was very approachable.
I am increasingly frustrated with Audible choosing narrators that cannot properly pronounce the names of people and places of Asian...isn't a large part of the book about the concentration of the semiconductor supply chain in Asia?

A must read for everyone!
Thank You Chris Miller for a brilliantly written and outstandingly comprehensive overview and analysis of semiconductors industry past, present and future.
A book that is a mandatory read for everyone who really wants to understand what's going on with world peace, economy and politics.

Very insightful listen!
Really enjoyed this indepth review of semiconductor history ... and current events. The what-if scenarios over Taiwan + TSMC control was very thought provoking on cost vs risk basis ... in light of Moore's Law in such a globalized tech ... mind boggling!

Lots of detail that scares you
Again. We see where the government and business leaders have screwed us. We are on a short pier trying to take a long walk.
Hope we can save this train from going off rails

A few interesting tidbits with tons boring stuff.
Narration of the audiobook was one of the worst I’ve heard in a while. It sounds like the narrator was done by a text to speech program.

Too much pro American bias.
Good amount of information but with a strong pro american bias that takes compromise credibility. At some points it sounds like straight propaganda.

Overall a very good must have book for not only an IT enthusiasts. I liked every part of the book
