(More customer reviews)This book is very thought provoking. It has very good examples of technology innovation and trends. It tells you "how to understand technology". It also tells you "how you can keep pace with such a fast changing technology" and "why you should". This is a must read for technology managers (different from Technical managers). It's good for persons who are managers and want to learn about technology. It also tells a manager that how much he should know about technology.
