The road movie of a PCB expert In this remarkable autobiography, Paul Waldner takes us on a journey through the stages of his eventful life. As a “constant immigrant,” the future owner of a company serving the electronics industry moved from Seoul to Long Island, to the working-class neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia (on a brief but important interlude) and onto college in Syracuse, New York. During his college years, Paul learned about the uses and design of printed circuit boards (PCBs). From that point on, PCBs would accompany him throughout his professional life. After beginning a career and starting a family on Long Island, the next migration was to Germany. In Europe, the rise and fall of his business was accompanied by a constant eastward migration of the PCB and electronics industries. “A Constant Immigrant” tells the story of the electronics industry from its formative years in the 1970s to the beginning of the 21st century along Paul’s life’s path. The captivating portrayal of the working reality and working environments in the companies Paul got to know through his professional and private life is a precise and personal look at the world of engineering, product design and electronics manufacturing.weiterlesen
