About this product

Product Information

Joe Wilson is the unsung leader of the technological innovations that swept U.S. business in the mid 20th century and that continue to be such a central part of the U.S. economy. Without Joe Wilson, Chet Carlson's invention of the copy machine that changed the world would likely have languished.

5 out of 5 stars
by YAbm1_cNTUa@Del...Oct 05, 2014
Xerox history really began in the late 1940s. This book helps to explain.
Excellent background on the difficulties encountered in the late 1940s as a group of inventors developed the first dry-copy machine, called the xerograph. Wilson's search for funding, manufacturing, testing and distribution eventually led to Rank Organisation in Great Britain for joint efforts to produce the first Xerox copier. The joint operation later became the Xerox Corp. in the USA. This book provides early background, making the more modern writings of Xerox even more interesting.
