Consider Dealers of Lightning by Michael A. Hiltzik. Recommended by 8 sources.
“Starts as a vivid inventory of inventors, projects, and lab culture at Xerox PARC, written in reporterly detail that foregrounds anecdotes and corporate memos. Main value is a textured sense of how early GUI, networking, and printing research happened and how personalities and management decisions shaped outcomes. Limitation: the narrative can dwell on minutiae and internal politics, slowing forward momentum and offering few clear takeaways for readers seeking practical lessons or modern startup playbooks. It reads like sustained magazine reporting, so detail-oriented readers are rewarded while those after a brisk how-to may be frustrated.”
