Publisher's Note
"Down In The Valley" is a satirical look at the computer industry through the eyes of an out-of-work professor of French literature from the midwest, who is mistaken for & hired as, a software genius by a Silicon Valley company. The book is very funny- but it also touches on a few serious issues, including the "downsizing" movement in the high-tech industry, which has thrown thousands of qualified technical employees out of work; & political maneuvering for power by higher management. "Valley" is the first satire of high-tech to be written by an insider- author Schaffer has been in the industry for eleven years- & the book is already well on its way to becoming a classic in Silicon Valley. It is a highly literate book, not "written down" in any way, with strong appeal for the general reading public as well as for anyone employed by, or associated with, high tech. First of a project trilogy.
