Dear colleagues: I am very much looking forward to this new book, the more so as I have been working with Raul Rojas for many years. Volume 2 of my "Milestones" contains very detailed information about Konrad Zuse's relationship with Switzerland. The Zuse Z4 was in operation at the ETH Zurich from 1950 to 1955. The chapter "Documents Relevant to the Z4 and Ermeth" compiles 51 largely unknown and difficult to access original documents, e.g. the basic contract and the leasing agreement for the relay Z4 computer. The documents are from the ETH archives. Bruderer, Herbert [2012]: Konrad Zuse und die Schweiz, De Gruyter Oldenbourg, Berlin/Boston, 1.

Over the years Raúl Rojas has shared his rich Zuse-scholarship with us, through this book it is now available in one coherent volume. We are proud to have Konrad Zuse's early computers; the quest for the computer in Germany, in our series History of Computing. Cheers, Gerard Alberts
