Description: Bell Labs Memoirs by A. Michael Noll, Michael Geselowitz Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In structure and history, Bell Labs was unique in the world. Its discoveries and inventions (advances on its earlier invention of the transistor, the laser, UNIX, the charge-coupled device) transformed global society and helped to form the information age and the digital era. The collection of narratives in this book focuses on Bell Labs peak years during the 1960s and 1970s. Whether by accident or providence, these years correspond almost exactly with the years when William Baker led the Labs (1955 - 1973). The chapters are mini-memoirs, ranging from personal background to research accounts to stories of social life at the Labs, as told by persons from every aspect of the Labs research operations, from chauffeurs and technicians to top scientists. Bill Bakers presence runs through all the narratives, leading the organization and defining its tone. His personal aptitude and leadership left an indelible stamp on Bell Labs and, indeed, on global science and technology. Author Biography Noll is a professor at the Annenberg School of Communication at the University of Southern California. He is also affiliated with the Columbia Institute for Tele-Information at Columbia Universitys Business School and the Media Center at New York Law School.
