Description
With a broad scope, this guide offers an authoriative introduction to the complex, interdisciplinary origins of computing. The book gives an overview of two centuries in the history of information processing and detailed coverage of a number of more recent topics including PC software, user interfaces and the Internet. It integrates the technical, business and policy aspects of the history of computing and thereby explains how and why computers were created and how they were shaped by the intent of their creators. It explains the development and the emergence of the modern computer industry.
