What happens when technology fails?
Silicon Autopsy explores fifty of the most famous disasters in the history of technology and invites you to investigate them like a systems engineer. Each incident presents the evidence, the decisions that led to failure, and the critical question every investigator must answer:
What actually caused the disaster?
From catastrophic software bugs to billion-dollar strategic mistakes, this book reconstructs real incidents that shaped modern technology. Each case challenges you to analyze the root cause, evaluate the system design, and propose the fix that could have prevented the failure.
What’s Inside
50 real technology disasters reconstructed as investigations
Detailed incident briefings with technical evidence
Real software bugs, engineering mistakes, and system failures
Interactive analysis sections where you determine the root cause
Lessons about software engineering, safety systems, and decision making
Incidents include famous failures such as aerospace accidents, catastrophic software bugs, infrastructure outages, corporate strategy disasters, and security breaches that reshaped entire industries.
Who This Book Is For
Software engineers who want to learn from real failures
Computer science students studying system design
Technology leaders and product managers
Engineers interested in failure analysis
Anyone curious about the biggest mistakes in tech history
This book is not a dry history of technology. It is an investigation lab where every case challenges your reasoning and technical intuition.
What You Will Learn
How small software bugs can trigger catastrophic failures
Why redundancy systems sometimes fail together
