Palo Alto is also a haunted toxic waste dump built on stolen Indian burial grounds, and an integral part of the capitalist world system. In PALO ALTO, the first comprehensive, global history of Silicon Valley, Malcolm Harris examines how and why Northern California evolved in the particular, consequential way it did, tracing the ideologies, technologies, and policies that have been engineered there over the course of 150 years of Anglo settler colonialism, from IQ tests to the "tragedy of the commons," racial genetics, and "broken windows" theory. The Internet and computers, too. It's a story about how a small American suburb became a powerful engine for economic growth and war, and how it came to lead the world into a surprisingly disastrous 21st century. PALO ALTO is an urgent and visionary history of the way we live now, one that ends with a clear-eyed, radical proposition for how we might begin to change course. 0aHigh technology industrieszCaliforniazSanta Clara Valley (Santa Clara County)xHistory. 0aIndustria de alta tecnología zValle de Santa Clara (California, Estados Unidos) xHistoria 0aPalo Alto (Calif.)xHistory. 4aPalo Alto (California, Estados Unidos) xHistoria  0aPalo Alto (Calif.)xSocial conditionsxHistory. 4aPalo Alto (California) xCondiciones sociales  0aPalo Alto (Calif.)xEconomic conditionsxHistory. 4aPalo Alto (California) xCondiciones económicas  4aValle de Santa Clara (California, Estados Unidos) 08iOnline version:aHarris, Malcolm.tPalo Alto.bFirst edition.dNew York : Little, Brown and Company, 2023z9780316592024w(OCoLC)1370179052
