En savoir plus sur le livre
A kaleidoscopic look at eleven disruptive innovations—including the iPhone, transistor, disposable diapers, and Julia Child's The Art of French Cooking—reveals how they reshaped industries and societies, propelling humanity toward new frontiers. From gunpowder to generative AI, disruptive forces continually rewrite the rules of business, society, and human potential. What drives these revolutionary changes? Innovation expert Scott Anthony weaves together captivating stories behind history's most transformative disruptions, spanning from ninth-century China to twenty-first-century Silicon Valley. Through eleven pivotal innovations, such as the printing press, mass-produced automobiles, and the McDonald's food system, Anthony uncovers the hidden patterns behind world-changing breakthroughs. However, this exploration goes beyond celebrating invention; it introduces the iconoclasts—Renaissance scientists, French-cooking enthusiasts, and corporate visionaries—who recognized opportunities others overlooked. Anthony decodes the process of genuine disruption, stripping away the mythology surrounding it. As artificial intelligence and other technologies promise to unleash another wave of transformation, this timely exploration offers innovators and curious readers a compelling look at how radical change reshapes industries and occasionally changes everything.
