Electric Dreams: Computers in American Culture
Ted Friedman
Turns to the past to trace the cultural history of computers. The author charts the struggles to define the meanings of these machines over more than a century, from the failure of Charles Babbage's "difference engine" in the 19th century to struggles over file swapping, open source software, and the future of online journalism.
