In our homes, our schools, and our businesses, computers play an ever-increasing role. But while most of us today can work a computer - albeit with the help of the ever-present computer software manual - we know little about what goes on inside the box and virtually nothing about software design or the world of computer programming.
In Patterns of Software, the respected software pioneer and computer scientist, Richard Gabriel, gives us an informative inside look at the world of software design and computer programming and the business that surrounds them. In this wide-ranging volume, Gabriel discusses such topics as what makes a successful programming language, how the rest of the world looks at and responds to the work of computer scientists, how he first became involved in computer programming and software development, what makes a successful software business, and why his own company, Lucid, failed in 1994, ten years after its inception.
