The One Device: The Secret History of the Iphone

byBrian Merchant

Focused on the Secret History of the Iphone, The One Device brings Brian Merchant's historical account to a complex and consequential subject. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of business & economics and computers. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
