Considering that the history of the Internet is perhaps better documented internally than any other technological construct it is remarkable how shadowy its origins have been to most people including die-hard Net-denizens! At last Hafner and Lyon have written a well-researched story of the origins of the Internet substantiated by extensive interviews with its creators who delve into many interesting details such as the controversy surrounding the adoption of our now beloved "@" sign as the separator of usernames and machine addresses. Essential reading for anyone interested in the past -- and the future -- of the Net specifically and telecommunications generally. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From Publishers Weekly Hafner coauthor of Cyberpunk and Lyon assistant to the president of the University of Texas here unveil the Sputnik-era beginnings of the Internet the groundbreaking scientific work that created it and the often eccentric brilliant scientists and engineers responsible. Originally funded during the Eisenhower administration by IPTO Information Processing Techniques Office within the Defense Department's Advanced Research Projects Agency ARPA ARPANET the Internet's predecessor was devised as a way to share far-flung U.S. computer resources at a time when computers were wildly expensive room-sized bohemoths unable to communicate with any other. The husband-and-wife writing team profile the computer engineering firm of Bolt Baranek and Newman which produced the original prototypes for ARPANET and they profile the men there were virtually no women and an alphabet soup of agencies universities and software that made the Internet possible. And while the book attempts to debunk the conventional notion that ARPANET was devised primarily as a communications link that could survive nuclear war essentially it was not pioneer developers like Paul Baran who along with British Scientist Donald Davies devised the Internet's innovative packet-switching message technology recognized the importance of an indestructible message medium in an age edgy over the prospects of global nuclear destruction. The book is excellent at enshrining little known but crucial scientist/administrators like Bob Taylor Larry Roberts and Joseph Licklider many of whom laid the groundwork for the computer science industry.
