Penhallow A: Who Pays for the Video

Who Pays for the Video

A Financial Times Best Book of 2025A Forbes Best Business Book of 2025The US is the source of just about all the technologies that define modern life: personal computers, operating systems, smartphones, e-commerce, web browsers, email, search engines, social networks, electric cars and the rest. And most of the tech companies that created and monetized these technologies are also in the US.
In this book Mehran Gul, the winner of the Financial Times/McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize, asks: is that changing?Less than a decade ago, the sentiment towards Chinese tech compa­nies was often dismissive and complacent. Now the alarm bells are ringing. But as the commentariat pontificates how the US-China tech battle will play out, an equally interesting question to ask is: are there more Chinas out there? Places no one is taking seriously now that might turn out to be massively competitive sooner than we think.Samsung, a South Korean conglomerate, competes with Apple to be the world's largest manufacturer of smartphones. Arm, founded in the UK, develops chip designs that are used in more than 90 per cent of all mobile devices. Spotify, based in Sweden, is the most popular music streaming service in the world.That's not all. The world's most important semiconductor company, TSMC, is in Taiwan. The other most important company in the semiconductor industry, ASML, is in the Netherlands. Some of the world's best-known games like Minecraft, Candy Crushand Angry Birdscame from gaming studios in the Nordics. Nearly all the major electric battery manufacturers like CATL, LG, and SK On are in Asia.This is a story about technology and the places where it finds its way into the world. Silicon Valley has for half a century been unrivalled in spinning out technologies and fast-growing, high-value, billion-dollar-plus tech companies, the Apples, Facebooks, Googles of the world, that made it the centre for the most rapid creation of wealth in human history. Its secrets are spreading to more places.The geography of innovation is shifting. The world has a lot more high-value tech companies than ever before, growing a lot faster than ever before, in a lot more places than ever before. This is a book about these places.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND STANDARD CHARTERED BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2026 WINNER OF A POLK AWARD AND A TRUE STORY AWARD NOMINATED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR JOURNALISM, THE MOORE PRIZE, THE ONE WORLD MEDIA AWARDS, THE AMNESTY AWARDS, AND THE BAYEUX-CALVADOS-NORMANDY AWARD FOR WAR CORRESPONDENTS 'Breathtaking' Jon Lee Anderson 'A magnificent, earth-shaking achievement' Andrew Harding 'Vital' Sally Hayden 'The most astonishing piece of investigative journalism I have ever read' Reader review On March 24, 2021, in the remote north of Mozambique, 500 ISIS militants attacked the small, paradise beach town of Palma - strategically unimportant but for vast offshore gas fields that had attracted $50 billion in foreign investment, including over £1 billion from the British government. As the Islamists surged through town beheading civilians, a group of men, women and children - including 80 gas plant construction workers - barricaded themselves inside a hotel to await rescue. An oil and gas compound defended by attack helicopters and 1,000 soldiers was just minutes away. But help never came. Five years on, Alex Perry's spell-binding, meticulous reconstruction unearths a hidden and unprecedented fiasco. Woven into his account is a search for the truth about how energy companies really make their vast profits. His investigation takes him around the world, from Europe to the US, and back to Africa again, as he tracks down roughnecks, mercenaries, billionaires, and corporate spooks. As the revelations build and the lies multiply, Perry finds himself drawn into an exploding political scandal. Propulsive, prophetic, and arriving at a time when energy companies imperil the planet, Blood Will Flow delivers a morality tale for the global economy.

UPDATED WITH A NEW AFTERWORD BY THE AUTHORLONGLISTED AS A FINANCIAL TIMES AND SCHRODERS BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDSHORTLISTED FOR THE ROYAL SOCIETY TRIVEDI SCIENCE BOOK PRIZEAn illuminating tour through the manufacturing world and its seismic influence on our lives, from internationally renowned expert Tim MinshallWe live in a manufactured world. Unless you are floating naked through space, you are right now in direct contact with multiple manufactured products, including furniture, technology, clothing, and even food. And yet the processes by which these things appear in our lives are virtually invisible. How often do we stop to think: Where do the things we buy actually come from? How are they made, and how do they make their way into our hands?The answers can be found in How Things Are Made, which traces the surprising paths taken by everyday items to reach consumers, from design to creation to delivery. Innovation expert Tim Minshall takes us on a journey through the manufacturing world, from the smallest job shops to mega-factories, from global shipping hubs to local delivery at your door, revealing the inner workings of the system that runs 24-7-365 to make and deliver the things we need—or want—to live our daily lives, including cars, cakes, phones, planes, drugs, and medical devices. Along the way, he explores how we can improve the fragility of our global manufacturing system and the impact it has on the natural world, presenting a path to a truly sustainable future.Brimming with energy and lively examples, How Things Are Made maps the awe-inspiring global system of manufacturing that enables virtually every aspect of our existence. By making sense of this surprising and hidden world, we are able to make better choices for ourselves, our communities, and the planet.

Catwalk

The first comprehensive overview of Ralph Lauren's womenswear collections, from their 1972 debut to today, presented through original catwalk photography. With 2.5 million copies in print, each cloth-bound volume in the official and authorized Catwalk series is produced in close collaboration with the world's top fashion houses. These treasure troves of inspiration are must-have references for all fashion fans and professionals. Ralph Lauren debuted his first women's runway collection for Fall 1972 with a show that made his mark instantly, highlighting his exquisite tailoring and uncanny ability to mix opposites elegantly. Taking inspiration from New England's rusticity, the West's natural beauty and Hollywood's glamour, Lauren's designs are a gold-standard for timeless American style with panache. This book celebrates more than 50 years of Lauren's creations, which have garnered many awards, made him a much-loved global brand and influenced the way women dress all over the world. Ralph Lauren famously launched his menswear business in 1967 with an audacious tie collection, taken up by Bloomingdale's, from which his Polo brand quickly developed. This became, and has remained ever since, a benchmark for polished tailoring with rugged utility. With his dual collections of 1972, Lauren began his rise in the world of women's fashion; fourteen years later he opened his first Paris store on Place de la Madeleine, an affirmation of his ranking with the world's most famed couturiers. His consistent desire to create 'a way of dressing that redefines the meaning of timelessness' has made his label a by-word for luxury and class - as one critic said, Ralph Lauren 'made it possible to use the words slinky and tweed in the same sentence without risking ridicule'. Complete with an introduction, designer biography and collection texts by Bridget Foley, this book offers a unique opportunity to explore the work of a great American couturier and creator of one of the world's most celebrated fashion houses.

How to build innovation and industrial ecosystems in the US that support global leadership in priority technologies of the future. A new world order is emerging, and within it, US priorities are shifting. A reconfiguration of global supply chains. The redrawing of geopolitical lines and alliances with increasing threats of conflict. A rise in weather-related disasters. And the emergence of transformative technologies. All these factors are converging to create an environment filled with uncertainty and change—but also possibility. For the country to flourish as well as defend and secure its interests, it must build on its decades of experience in developing frontier technologies and globally competitive industries through investments into priority technologies for the twenty-first century. This volume, edited by Elisabeth Reynolds, presents a high-level introduction to some of the key areas where the United States must excel and lead in the coming decades to ensure both national and economic security. The book provides an overview of six key priority technologies—critical minerals, semiconductors, biomanufacturing, quantum computing, drones, and advanced manufacturing—needed to build the innovation and industrial ecosystems that will keep the US secure and drive shared prosperity. Contributors: Elsa A. Olivetti, Jesús del Alamo, J. Christopher Love, William D. Oliver, Jonathan Ruane, and Fiona E. Murray.

Architectural exhibitions have a long and surprising history. Regine Heß has examined them as a subject of architectural history research, with their own genealogy and impact, and demonstrates that architectural exhibitions have a tradition that dates back to the world’s fairs, industrial exhibitions, arts and crafts exhibitions, and colonial exhibitions of the 19th century. It was the most renowned figures in architecture, design, and landscape architecture who further developed the typologies of large-scale exhibitions and adapted them to the new format of the architecture exhibition. Drawing on 17 exhibitions—some of which have been researched for the first time—Von der Weltausstellung zur Bauausstellung (From the World’s Fair to the Building Exhibition) offers an architectural history of major exhibitions and traces their development from the 1851 World’s Fair in London to the 1957 Interbau (International Building Exhibition) in West Berlin, examining aspects such as the representational power of architecture, industrial architecture, and the racist practice of othering.

'Brave, intense, unexpected, lyrical and troubling' Rory StewartAn extraordinary portrait of the Scottish Highlands: this is an epic and urgent story of destruction and renewal, told through unforgettable encounters with its people.This is the story of a Scottish glen and its inhabitants, and of how I came to call it my glen.From the powerful rivers that bring life and prosperity, to the Pictish cairns, undisturbed for centuries and the meadows of bluebells, from which deer emerge, god-like, in a flash, Kapka Kassabova reveals a world that has been abused, but remains achingly beautiful and alive.In the Highlands, centuries-old connections between the land, nature and people have been, and continue to be, shaken by the forces of colonialism, industry, depopulation and private property speculation.Borrowed Land tells the stories of those who are working against this disconnect: the last true Highlanders, fighting to preserve their home.'A poetic and haunting anatomy of what happens when a world is addicted to extraction' James Crawford'Stark and moving. A hymn, a howl and a call to action all at once' Ben Rawlence'A brilliant, daring and urgent account' Sally Huband

Borrowed Land

A pyrotechnic examination of Elon Musk as a symptom and avatar of our postliberal age 'A searing analysis of Elon Musk... Impressive and unrelenting, this grapples with a destructive ideology that seems poised to consume everything' - Publisher's Weekly (Starred Review) 'Impeccably researched and splendidly written, Muskism introduces us to a world full of promise and fear' - Branko Milanovic, author of The Great Global TransformationWho on earth is Elon Musk and what is he doing? Is he a hero, a villain, or does he swing constantly between those two poles? According to the constant media gush driven by his every act and pronouncement, Musk is best understood in personal terms. This book argues differently. Rather than seeing Musk as an individual, it sees him as an avatar of something called Muskism: a playbook for our new postliberal age.It's not that Musk himself holds a coherent set of beliefs; you could say his life is one long improvisation. And he's certainly never used the word Muskism - just as, a century ago, Henry Ford never used Fordism to define his own postliberal modernity. In exploring the forces that have shaped Musk, from South Africa to Silicon Valley, Space X to DOGE, Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff outline the motifs and practices that have come to dominate our own crisis-ridden world.Muskism, they show, speaks the language of crisis and emergency to invoke a less human future: where humans are purged from the productive process and, through social media and video games, merged with the machine. This is a worldview in which the technocrat is king; which piggybacks on the state to achieve supremacy; and in which only a select few deserve salvation. If you enter, this book warns you, you will grind and you will live in the shadow of one man - but the rewards could be priceless and the alternative might be extinction.
