[SIGCIS-Members] Voices of Science interviews with British computer scientists

[Lean, Thomas]

Greetings,

 

List members may be interested in the British Library's brand new Voices
of Science web resource http://www.bl.uk/voices-of-science/ featuring
edited extracts from National Life Stories' Oral History of British
Science, along with links to around 1000 hours of complete life story
interviews with nearly 100 British scientists and engineers. 

 

Of particular interest to SIGCIS members may be the interviews with
computer scientists (from the 1940s to the present day), and with
scientists and engineers in other fields talking about the use of
computers in their work, and featuring both audio and a few video
recordings.
