    Book, 1st pbk. ed, Tor, 2003
  • Description

    He has just met Momo, a woman from the All, a world of four spatial dimensions for whom our narrow world, which she calls Spaceland, is something like a rug, but one filled with motion and life. After that it’s a wild ride through a million-dollar night in Las Vegas, a budding addiction to tasty purple 4-D food, a failing marriage, eye-popping excursions into the All, and encounters with Momo’s foes, rubbery red critters who steal money, offer sage advice and sometimes messily explode.

  • Publication Details

    Book, Greenwood Press, 2005
  • Description

    Originally a military and scientific computational tool of a small number of government, scientific, and corporate elites in the late 1940s, the computer has evolved significantly in less than 70 years to become a revolutionary technology and the basis for one the largest industries in America. From punched cards and tabulating machines to the first digital computer companies in the early 1950s, Yost clearly describes how the concept of the computer was born in the late 1800s but did not evolve into the personal computer until the late 1970s and 1980s.

    Kevin Maney
  • Publication Details

    Book, J. Wiley & Sons, 2003
  • Description

    The first complete look at one of America’s legendary business leaders This groundbreaking biography by Kevin Maney, acclaimed technology columnist for USA Today, offers fresh insight and new information on one of the twentieth century’s greatest business figures. Maney secured exclusive access to hundreds of boxes of Watson’s long-forgotten papers, and he has produced the only complete picture of Watson the man and Watson the legendary business leader. Jim Collins, author of the bestsellers Good to Great and Built to Last, writes in the Foreword to Maney’s book: “Leaders like Watson are like forces of nature-almost terrifying in their release of energy and unpredictable volatility, but underneath they still adhere to certain patterns and principles. The Maverick and His Machine also includes never-before-published photos of Watson from IBM’s archives, showing Watson in greater detail than any book ever has before.
