An interesting story but about 150 pages too long for this non-computer guy. I am a proud owner of one of Stoll's Klein bottles.
NF. Good indictment of hype given to computers & Internet. Excellent book.
USA, Californien, 1986

Very good. Even years later this book is thought provoking. In addition, it gives a historical view of computing at beginning of the widespread use of the Internet.
