Review of 'The Dream Machine' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I love reading about the early days of computing, and this book pulled several of the stories I was familiar with (ARPA, Xerox PARC, Bell Labs) and wove them into a single thread. The book loosely follows the career of JCR Licklider (Lick) and the role he played in promoting, funding, inventing, and evangelizing modern computing.
