Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. William Bradford Shockley (February 13, 1910 – August 12, 1989) was an American physicist and inventor. Along with John Bardeen and Walter Houser Brattain, Shockley co-invented the transistor, for which all three were awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics. Shockley''s attempts to commercialize a new transistor design in the 1950s and 1960s led to California''s Silicon Valley" becoming a hotbed of electronics innovation. In his later life, Shockley was a professor at Stanford, and he also became a staunch advocate of eugenics."
