Condition: Good. : Fumbling the Future es una fascinante crónica sobre uno de los mayores errores estratégicos en la historia de la tecnología. El libro detalla cómo Xerox, a través de su centro de investigación PARC, inventó el Alto, la primera computadora personal totalmente integrada, seis años antes de que IBM lanzara su primer modelo. Sin embargo, debido a decisiones corporativas y una visión limitada, la empresa no logró comercializar su propio invento, permitiendo que otros gigantes tecnológicos capitalizaran su innovación.Escrito por Douglas K. Smith y Robert C. Alexander, esta obra analiza las dinámicas internas y los fallos de gestión que llevaron a Xerox a ignorar el futuro que ellos mismos habían creado.
