The Soul of the Internet: Net Gods, Netizens and the Wiring of the World - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

What exactly is the Internet? A technical definition will focus on the Internet as a computer network, in fact a network of networks, with millions of machines linked by wires and signals. Yet behind these machines live the people who developed this amazing phenomenon that has changed the face of business and society. These people are the focus of Neil Randall's book.
Extensive interviews with the top personalities involved in the development of the Internet are interwoven with thought-provoking commentary and analysis. We hear the voices of Vinton Cerf, Tim Berners-Lee, Mark McCahill, Robert Cailliau, James Gosling, Jun Murai, Brewster Kahle, Robert Kahn, Dennis Jennings, and many others telling their stories in their own words, and the author places these stories in their technological, social, educational, and commercial contexts.
