an anthropological take on Free Software,
By
This review is from: Two Bits: The Cultural Significance of Free Software (Paperback)
An anthropological take on Free Software (or Open Source Software). Can be easily read even though the reader may not have much in-depth knowledge on related issues such as UNIX.
The author introduces the concept of "Recursive Public" in the opening chapters. Anyone interested in public sphere debates should have a look at this new concept. A very detailed but understandably narrated history of licensing issues in open software and a good history of developing UNIX and its forks can be found in this book. Finally, the reader will have a look how open source software can be applied in publishing by focusing on the Connexions project... |
