The Maverick And His Machine

Over the course of forty-two years, Thomas J Watson took a failing business and transformed it into IBM, the world's first and most famous high-tech company. This is the complete business biography of Watson, derived with the cooperation of the Watson family, and from exclusive access to IBM's Watson archives and 340 boxes of Watson's personal papers.

There has been much publicity over Edwin Black's theory that Watson deliberately aided the Nazis; here Maney finally debunks Black's claims, revealing once and for all the real story behind that complex relationship - which is sure to cause a stir among reviewers.
