デジタル革命はシリコン・ヴァレーにいた"ティーンエイジャーの億万長者"によって始められたわけではない。チャールズ・バベッジやジョージ・ブール、ジョン・フォン・ノイマンなど、初期の知的巨人たちがいたからこそできたのだ。
そうしたコンピュータの"開祖(ペイトリアーク)"たちから、J・C・R・リックライダー、ダグラス・エンゲルバート、ロバート・テイラー、アラン・ケイといった"パイオニア"たちを経て、その後の"インフォノート"たちまでを、ハワード・ラインゴールドは独特の魅力的なスタイルで語る。
19世紀の数学から現代のコンピュータ科学までの進歩をじっくりとたどりつつ、その時々の天才や一匹狼、奇人変人、夢想家たちのエピソードが本人の言葉で紹介される。
本書に登場するコンピュータ革命を夢みた天才たち
チャールズ・バベッジとエイダ・ラヴレイス伯爵夫人、ジョージ・ブール、アラン・チューリング、ジョン・フォン・ノイマン、ノーバート・ウィーナー、クロード・シャノン、J.C.R.リックライダー、ダグラス・エンゲルバート、ロバート・テイラー、アラン・ケイ、エイヴロン・バー、ブレンダ・ローレル、テッド・ネルソン
本書のオリジナル版は1985年に出版され、1990年代のコンピューティングに対するラインゴールドの見方が、千権勢あるものだったということを証明した。今回の新版には新たに後書きの章が追加され、その中で彼は、本書に登場する人物の何人かに再びインタビューを試みている。言わば"過去を振り返る未来主義"。過去の自分が未来をどう見ていたのかを、振り返っているのである。

What is ZenPlus?
ZenPlus is an online shopping platform connecting Japan with the rest of the world. We're part of the ZenGroup, Inc. umbrella in Osaka, Japan.

Are items authentic?
Our sellers' agreement fully compels all stores to list only authentic items. We help you buy exclusive and authentic items from Japan, online!

Do you ship to my country?
We ship to all countries where Japan Post air freight services and international couriers currently operate. We don't use surface mail.

How long does shipping take?
Domestic shipments generally reach our warehouse in a few days, but may in certain specific cases take a week or more. International shipments can take anywhere from several days to several weeks to reach you after leaving our warehouse, depending on if you choose Standard or Express shipping.
Please contact our support team from the Questions section on your account page if you have any questions about the timing of your parcel.

How much is shipping?
Shipping costs depend on the size, weight, and destination of your parcel. We provide shipping costs for your order at checkout.

Will I be charged a customs (import) fee?
It depends on your country and its customs regulations. Our service does not cover duties and import taxes — in general, if the customs office in your country applies charges to your package, you are required to pay them.
