A new book on writing computer and information history
Some of you may be interested in a book that I edited, published by Rowman & Littlefield (as of last week, now part of Bloomsbury), entitled Writing Computer and Information History: Approaches, Reflections, and Connections. The e-book is already out, and the hardcover will launch June 14. The book includes chapters by 18 authors experienced in writing computer history or information history: Toni Weller, Thomas Haigh, James Cortada, Laura Skouvig, Geoffrey Bowker and John Leslie King, David Gugerli and Daniela Zetti, Shane Greenstein, Daniel Garcia Swartz and Martin Campbell-Kelly, Philip Doty and William Aspray, Valerie Schafer, Matthew Jones, Howard Rosenbaum, Greg Downey, and Liesbeth De Mol.

Hello all, Just received this book through interlibrary loan, and it’s really good. Just wanted to say that I will have to buy it after all… ;-) Peter Krapp Computing Legacies: https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262549837/computing-legacies/
