What I wish is that people would look beyond the tribbles and see I've written some other books that I really would like people to notice.

Performance Perception

 into a toy and game operation. You may have heard of it; it's called Nintendo. Yokoi's creative philosophy translated to "lateral thinking with withered technology," taking well-known technology and using it in new ways. And his magnum opus was the Game Boy. Technological joke in every way.

Why specializing early...
