SUMMARY
"The technically minded will not find much real meat in this book....But the descriptions...do provide the lay reader with enough of a sense of the basic technical issues to be able to follow the drama of ENIAC's creation. It is that drama which is the real story here....The cast of characters (famous and unknown), the contending egos, and the egregious acts of dishonesty and deceit make this book an absorbing read for anyone who savors the human stories that underlie great events.McCartney, Scott is the author of 'Eniac The Triumphs and Tragedies of the World's First Computer' with ISBN 9780802713483 and ISBN 0802713483.
