The story of fast food is to a large extent the story of post-war America. In a perverse way, it is also the story of Britain since the deregulation of our food and labour markets in the early 1980s.

在线阅读本书 Under Andy Grove’s leadership，Intel has become the worlds largest chip maker and one of the most admired companies in the world．In only the Paranoid Survive, Grove reveals his strategy of focusing on a new way of measuring the nightmare moment every leader dreads——when massive change occurs and a company must，yirtually overnight adapt or fall by the wayside．Grove calls such a moment a Strategic Inflection Point，which can be set off by almost anything:mega-competition, a change in regulations, or a seemingly modest change in technology. When a Strategic Inflection Point hits, the ordinary rules of business go out the window. Yet man-aged right, a Strategic Inflection Point can be and opportunity to win in the marketplace and emerge stronger than ever. Grove underscores his message by examining his own record of success and failure, including how he navigated the events of the Pentium flaw, which threatened Intel's reputation in 1994, and how he has dealt with the explosions in growth of the Internet. The work of a lifetime, Only the Paranoid Survive is a classic of managerial and leadership skills. 　　"This book is about one super-important concept.
