it was amazing

What an absolute gem I found in some Stack Overflow comments! Deriving modern computers from first principles such as Morse code and electromagnets, it's a rare book that can connect with you regardless of prior technical expertise.

Would mostly recommended for software professionals looking to ground themselves in how it all started. This doesn't mean it's a history book: the insight into hardware and software components is as relevant today as it was in 2000.

Truly enjoyable read throughout.
