The AMD Cookbook
From Underdog to Industry Benchmark — The Secret Recipe Behind Zen, EPYC, and the Silicon Renaissance
By Christoph P. Wyss
For decades, AMD lived in the shadow of a giant. With grit, ingenuity, and a taste for risk, it fought its way from scrappy challenger to market leader — rewriting the rules of the semiconductor game.
The AMD Cookbook serves up the inside story of that transformation: the “ingredients” of visionary leadership, daring engineering, and a culture that refused to quit; the “recipes” for breakthroughs like Athlon, Opteron, Ryzen, and EPYC; and the strategic flavors that turned near-bankruptcy into a multi-billion-dollar renaissance.
From backroom reverse-engineering to headline-grabbing innovations, Christoph P. Wyss takes you inside AMD’s kitchens — where high-stakes decisions, unlikely partnerships, and sheer technical artistry created one of technology’s greatest comeback stories.
Whether you’re a business leader, engineer, investor, student, or tech enthusiast, The AMD Cookbook connects the dots between past, present, and future — and leaves you standing on the ridge, looking toward the next silicon horizon.
