Drawing on vivid testimonies from rural migrant workers, student interns, managers and trade union staff, Dying for an iPhone is a devastating expose of two of the world?s most powerful companies: Foxconn and Apple. As the leading manufacturer of iPhones, iPads, and Kindles, and employing one million workers in China alone, Taiwanese-invested Foxconn?s drive to dominate global electronics manufacturing has aligned perfectly with China?s goal of becoming the world leader in technology. This book reveals the human cost of that ambition and what our demands for the newest and best technology means for workers. 651 0 $a China. 941 $a 5 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214050014.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20220601010818.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210406015616.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20201010010041.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20201002012157.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B8C1D692047611EB89AE83802EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
