About This Book

Tras vivir durante décadas en Silicon Valley, cerca de la universidad donde da clases de literatura, Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht, uno de los intelectuales europeos más respetados, se dio cuenta de que residía en el centro del mundo. En aquella sucesión de edificios anodinos, destartalados, parecidos a naves industriales, se encontraban las sedes de Facebook, Apple o Google, las empresas que condicionan las sociedades actuales.

¿Qué hace que Silicon Valley, Palo Alto, Cupertino o Mountain View sean lugares especiales? ¿Por qué en ese lugar de California se ha concentrado tanto talento y optimismo? ¿Por qué personajes como Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg o Bill Gates encarnan nuestra época? ¿Qué dice de nuestro tiempo esa confluencia de distintos acentos, estudiantes ambiciosos y millonarios discretos que se reúnen en un sitio concreto para desarrollar una tecnología que supuestamente convierte la geografía en algo irrelevante?

Cargado de erudición literaria y filosófica, y con una enorme curiosidad por entender a dónde nos lleva Silicon Valley, Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht desvela la mirada más original sobre el mundo tecnológico.

Porque si un filósofo quiere entender el mundo, debe empezar por mirar su centro.
