In this concise and accessible account of the invention and development of digital technology, computer historian Paul Ceruzzi offers a broad and useful perspective. He identifies four major threads that run throughout all of computings technological development: digitization--the coding of information, computation, and control in binary form, ones and zeros; the convergence of multiple streams of techniques, devices, and machines, yielding more than the sum of their parts; the steady advance of electronic technology, as characterized famously by Moores Law; and the human-machine interface. Ceruzzi guides us through computing history and describes the development of the silicon chip. He visits that hotbed of innovation, Silicon Valley, and brings the story up to the present with the Internet, the World Wide Web, and social networking.
