Descrição do livro

Hook line: This book traces how fiber optics emerged and upended telecommunications, with practical lessons for managers and innovators.

Technological Discontinuities: The Emergence of Fiber Optics examines how a radical shift in what technology can do changes markets, firms, and strategy. It weaves case studies around Corning, AT&T, Galileo, SpecTran, and others to show how industry outsiders and incumbents navigated the transition from old to new. The analysis uses established models of technological change to frame why some firms succeed while others struggle.



The work contrasts different patterns of discontinuity—product, process, and competence destroying or enhancing—to explain why entry barriers rose or fell and how competition evolved. It also discusses timing, learning, and organizational changes needed to adapt before the old technology declines.




    • How discontinuities are classified and what that means for strategy.

    • How firms balance research, partnerships, and market shifts during a tech upheaval.

    • Key roles played by Corning, AT&T, and emerging fiber innovators.

    • Practical takeaways for forecasting, investment, and organizational change.



    Ideal for readers of technology management, industry history, and telecommunications evolution.
