Jack St. Clair Kilby A Man of Few Words [signed]

The story of Jack Kilby and the invention of the microchip has been told many times, and is told again here from a new perspective. This book also tells the story of Jack's other life---his youth, his education, his family, and hobbies, and his service in World War II---as well as the turning points: what part did a Kansas blizzard play in Jack's life? Was his life saved by a cat nap? How did not taking a vacation lead to a Nobel Prize? The answers are within.
