4.0 out of 5 stars
A brief history of the rapid evolution of info technology,
By steven j forsberg (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: INFOCULTURE CL (Library Binding)
This book, packed with photos and illustrations, provides a concise, not-too-technical, overview of the evolution of information technology and its impact on our society. It serves as a good adjunct to more scholarly books on the subject and should keep the interest of anyone who is a fan of technology. The frequent graphics and photos should particularly interest younger readers who may not have much scientific or technological background.

5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the Best Books on IT History Ever Written,
By A Customer
This review is from: INFOCULTURE CL (Library Binding)
One thing that I think is lacking in a a modern computer science cource is a good foundation in where allthis technology came from. The computer is just another Info Machine, just like the TV or radio. In 50 years time it will be somthing else that has got america's wallet and interest. This book looks at that veary history, what technology was of the past andwhat it most likly will be in the future. This book could serve as a Text Book for any course in computer history if there was one. Color Photos on practically every page make it ideal for visual learners, but it is also cram packed with text for the Conventianal learner.
