Book Description
提起高錕教授，即時會想起他的光纖、寬頻通訊等科學技術上的成就。本書是作者的七十自述，除了讓讀者一覽他闖蕩世界科技文明、周遊列國的廣闊人生之外，還與讀者分享他對人、對世界的開闊視野。“潮平岸闊”既可以用來形容今天的寬頻傳送，何嘗不是作者生命形態的最佳寫照。
《潮平岸闊─高錕自述》裡的高錕，不止“光纖之父”一面。本書共十五章，首章先寫與廝守四十多年的夫人美芸相識相遇，及後共結連理的生活細節，隨之倒敘童年往事，以及鮮有詳細披露的留學生活。這是作者的巧心安排：科技事業與家庭兼重，以“邂逅”居全書之首，見科技學者對人文、人倫價值之肯定。

A book I bought recently. Surprisingly I spent something like 3 weeks to finish it. Given the Nobel prize I think Charles Ko should be widely appreciated. As the father of optical fibre , he has undoubtedly contributed a lot to Human history. For instance, you cannot see this passage smoothly without optical fibre.
This book is a general description on how he lived in UK , US and HK. Nothing really serious about optical fibre was presented.
A super ironic scene I would like to highlight after I have bought the book.
Isn't it just strange that on one hand you are admiring and respecting the signifiicance of the invention of optical fibre, on the other hand you see booths selling Broadband like ... $99 / month?
To be honest, I don't see any worse products than those Telecom industry in HK. Have you ever seen booth on street selling food / /clothes/ travelling/ insurance / electronics? Never.
We are, to some extend, the friends of property agents.
We deserve some more respect.
