A classic story about beating roulette with the world�s first wearable computers. �A veritable pi�ata of a book,� said The New York Times, which ranges from the invention of personal computers through the history of gambling to breaking the bank in Las Vegas. �Bass has done the best job so far of capturing the marriage of technical imagination and communal coziness that gave rise to Silicon Valley,� said the Los Angeles Times. �An extraordinary story,� said Nature. �Behind the fun and games there lies an economic parable for the decade just passed.� A madcap adventure and insanely comedic, this is �an astonishing and fascinating tale of scientific heroism,� said Richard Dawkins.
