Beginning with the development of the compass Ruling the Waves examines a series of technological revolutions that promised in their time to transform the worlds politics and business With Debora Spars gifted storytelling each chapter reads like an adventure tale as she recounts the histories of the printing press and maps of the telegraph radio and satellite television of software encryption and the advent of digital music At each of these junctures Spar suggests that invention led to both a wave of commerce and of chaos Entrepreneurs such as Samuel Morse and Rupert Murdoch carved new markets from the emerging technology and proclaimed that the old rules no longer applied And for a while they were right But eventuallyand inevitablyeven cowboys need rules rules of property rules of coordination rules of competition The erstwhile pioneers thus turn to government lobbying for order and setting the stage for the next wave of discovery A fascinating history of business Ruling the Waves is also an original thoughtprovoking analysis of the parallels between past innovations and inventions and our own tumultuous times
