The Daemon, The Gnu, And The Penguin
Couldn't load pickup availability
In addition to covering a history of free and open source, The
Daemon, the Gnu, and the Penguin explores how free and open software is changing the world. It is authored by Peter H. Salus, a noted
UNIX, open source, and Internet historian and author of A Quarter Century of UNIX and Casting The Net and other books. Salus has interviewed well over a hundred key figures to document the history and background of free and open source software. In his book, Salus reaches back
into the early days of computing, showing that even in "pre-UNIX"
days there was freely available software, and rapidly moves forward to the Free Software movement of today and what it means for the future, drawing analogies and linkages from various aspects of
economics and life.
