Excellent Historical Review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is an excellent historical review of the computer and telecom technologies, and it is a must-read for anyone interested in the convergence of technologies, surely the most important phenomenon of the next century. The book's historical analysis of where we've been puts into perspective where we are going.
Totally absorbing

One of the most brilliant and insightful books that I have ever read. I was engaged from the first page to the last. I couldn't put it down.
