Description

Complementing the author's 1990 bibliography, this volume provides 2,500 new citations, covering all significant literature published since the late 1980s. It includes all aspects of the subject - biographies, company histories, industry studies, product descriptions, sociological studies, industry directories, and traditional monographic histories - and covers all periods from the beginnings to the personal computer. New to this volume is a chapter on the management of information processing operations, useful to both historians and managers of information technology. Together with the earlier bibliography, this work provides the most comprehensive bibliographic guide to the history of computers, computing, and the information processing industry.
