It is the best book I have ever read about computers. I read The Soul of a New Machine for the first time when I was in high school. Way back in the 60s and 70s, there used to be a minicomputer company named Data General. That confession comes from Tracy Kidder, author of nine nonfiction books, including 1981's The Soul of a New Machine, which won the Pulitzer Prize for general nonfiction and a National Book Award. A review of Tracy Kidder's classic tech book, The Soul of a New Machine, which is still relevant today. It was actually quite successful for some time and competed with the giant DEC. Growing up, we had a colour tv at home. Nostalgia is my middle name, and for the past years I've been looking for the reason behind this claim: everything used to be much better.

Guri Sohi, instructor of my Intro to Computer Engineering course, recommended this book during a particularly tense Monday morning lecture.

It is one reason I ended up working in software engineering.
