Blackberry: The Inside Story of Research in Motion
Blackberry: The Inside Story of Research in Motion

The meteoric rise of a smartphone empire.

If you've ever been intrigued by the signature thumb-scroll of a BlackBerry or marveled at how a single gadget revolutionized communication, "Blackberry: The Inside Story of Research in Motion" captures that magic. Rod McQueen takes you behind the screens of the iconic device, weaving the tale of its creation with the business tenacity that propelled it to fame. It's not just about the technology but the people and ambition that drove an industry—and for anyone interested in the inner workings of tech giants, it's an enlightening read.

Description

This is Rod McQueen's biography of a company that repeatedly surprised everyone. It is a never-before-seen, behind-the-scenes portrait of RIM and its co-CEOs who are two of today's most respected business leaders. It explores in detail not only the company's early struggles against much larger and better-known firms, but how RIM has been able to maintain and exceed its own expectations through a passion for both innovation and business execution.
