Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This short analysis of the global wireless technology market is probably the most thorough book of its type. Authors Chetan Sharma and Yasuhisa Nakamura diligently track the development of the most important wireless technologies and standards, sketch the anatomy of the value chain and make some informed judgments about the future direction of various wireless industry segments. They also examine the social and cultural influence of wireless. The book is refreshingly free of the hype and hucksterism that characterizes so many books about the business of technology. However, some readers will find its relentless focus and its scrupulously neutral prose hard to take in any but small doses. We highly recommend this book to anyone in the wireless industry whose job demands an understanding of the field's broader business and technological context. The lengthy list of industry abbreviations and acronyms is a particularly valuable feature.
