Based on the exhibition "A Computer Perspective" which was designed by Charles and Ray Eames for IBM. The exhibition was in 1971, the book is from 1973. It's conceptually a timeline from 1890-1950 on the development of computing. Great breadth of material, not so great on depth. Really could use some contextualization on some of the entries, e.g., Bertillon and Hooton just dropped in there like they weren't doing pseudoscience. On the plus side, Torres y Quevedo, E. Post, Zuse, and Stibitz mentions were awesome. The exhibit was too early to cover Atanasoff-Berry (no ruling yet) or Colossus (still classified.) ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
A Computer Perspective is an illustrated essay on the origins and first lines of development of the computer. The complex network of creative forces and social pressures that have produced the computer is personified here in the creators of instruments of computation, and their machines or tables; the inventors of mathematical or logical concepts and their applications; and the fabricators of practical devices to serve the immediate needs of government, commerce, engineering, and science. The book is based on an exhibition conceived and assembled for International Business Machines (IBM) Corporation. Like the exhibition, it is not a history in the narrow sense of a chronology of concepts and devices. Yet these pages actually display more true history (in relation to the computer) than many more conventional presentations of the development of science and technology.
