If you are at all curious about how we got to where we are today with Intel’s recent stumbles and Apples seemingly out of nowhere surprise with the M1, I highly recommend this book.
It highlights for instance Apple’s relationship with TSMC and that lead TSMC to be arguably the leader in chip fab tech, surpassing the long-term dominance of Intel.
