A revised version of A Brief History of Data Processing, an earlier version. This book is written in the style of King James English. It is an irreverent look at the history of computers, companies and persons in the evolution of computers. Beginning with Konrad Zuse in Germany it spares no company nor person with biblical-like text supported with abundant footnotes to explain the sometime arcane text. Who says computers are a dull, humorless subject. Do you remember the Eagle computer? Do you know who developed COBOL, BASIC? Do you know who perfected the first computer with memory resident programs? Read this book and find out.
