但这本书不只有论战，也是一部非虚构惊悚作品，一半《中国综合征》（1979年的一部美国惊悚片——编著），一半《碟中谍》（汤姆·克鲁斯主演的动作片系列——编著）。它还是送给那些害怕“觉醒”(wokeness)、害怕女性的保守男孩读者的好礼。与2012年播出的虽然过于吹捧但还是引人入胜的电视系列纪录片《美国商业大亨传奇》一样，《芯片战》中充满了毫不掩饰的男子汉气概、理所当然的聪明才智、尽最大可能拿下市场的贪婪，以及世界舞台上的狡诈权力游戏。
Woke ( WOHK) is an English adjective meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination" that originated in African-American Vernacular English (AAVE). Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as sexism, and has also been used as shorthand for American Left ideas involving identity politics and social justice, such as the notion of white privilege and slavery reparations for African Americans.
