Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A town spoke. Something larger answered. In September 2025, a township board in rural Michigan voted to reject a data center. Two days later, the developer sued. Within three weeks, the project was approved anyway. THIS IS SERVER COUNTRY tells - through vivid narrative and clear-eyed analysis - the story of America's largest private infrastructure buildout. More than a trillion dollars. Over six hundred projects. A power grid racing to keep up. This book follows the people caught in the buildout, explains how the machines actually work, and asks why farmland instead of shuttered factories. It traces the current backward from silicon in Taiwan to sandy loam in Saline - and reveals who builds, who benefits, and who pays, where local zoning meets great-power politics. What you'll learn: How AI inference works and why it demands unprecedented compute powerWhy data centers choose farmland, not cities-the grid topology that determines where projects landThe trillion-dollar capital wave: hyperscalers, private equity, and sovereign wealthState incentive wars and the communities caught between economic development and local controlThe nuclear renaissance, natural gas reality, and what sustainability promises actually meanExport controls, chip wars, and the geopolitics reshaping global AI infrastructureThe railroads opened the West. The interstates created the suburbs. The AI boom follows the same pattern, at faster speed - but to what end, we know not yet. Who this book is for: Anyone who wants to understand where AI actually lives - the buildings, the power, the politics. Technologists, policymakers, investors, journalists, and citizens in communities facing these decisions. This item is printed on demand.
