Personal computers didn't appear until the 1970s, but as early as 1941, the first automated, program-controlled, and freely programmable computer was up and running. The Computer-- My Life is the story of Konrad Zuse and his revolutionary invention--the computer (or mechanical brain as he liked to call it), which Zuse built in his parents' living room. Zuse writes his autobiography simply and directly to be accessible to a wide audience of non-technophiles and includes hand-drawn diagrams of computer functions, as well as cartoons from his younger years when he dreamed of becoming an artist. The book also includes appendices with detailed technical information for the more technical reader.Book Description
Konrad Zuse is one of the great pioneers of the computer age. He created thefirst fully automated, program controlled, freely programmable computer using binary floating-point calculation. It was operational in 1941. He built his first machines in Berlin during the Second World War, with bombs falling all around, and after the war he built up a company that was taken over by Siemens in 1967. Zuse was an inventor in the traditional style, full of phantastic ideas, but also gifted with a powerful analytical mind. Single-handedly, he developed one of the first programming languages, the Plan Calculus, including features copied only decades later in other languages. He wrote numerousbooks and articles and won many honors and awards. This is his autobiography, written in an engagingly lively and pleasant style, full of anecdotes, reminiscences, and philosophical asides. It traces his life from his childhood in East Prussia, through tense wartime experiences and hard times building up his business after the war, to a ripe old age andwell-earned celebrity.Customer Reviews:

Book Description
Konrad Zuse baute die erste vollautomatische, programmgesteuerte und frei programmierte, in binärer Gleitpunktrechnung arbeitende Rechenanlage. Sie war 1941 betriebsfähig. Mit anderen Worten: Konrad Zuse baute den ersten funktionsfähigen Computer.
In diesem Buch erzählt er die Geschichte seines Lebens, das wie kaum ein anderes mit der Geschichte der bedeutendsten technischen Entwicklung seines Jahrhunderts verbunden ist - einer Entwicklung, die mit der "Abneigung" des Berliner Bauingenieurstudenten Zuse gegen die statischen Rechnungen begonnen hat...
"Von der ersten bis zur letzten Seite ist diese Autobiographie eine faszinierende Lektüre, weil aus jeder Zeile das persönliche Erleben des Autors spricht. Diese Unmittelbarkeit macht Buch und Autor sympathisch." (ntz Nachrichtentechnische Zeitschrift)<BR><BR>"...Für entspannende und erholsame Stunden, informativ und allgemeinbildend, eigentlich genau das, was im Zusammenhang mit dem Thema Computer sehr oft gefragt und verlangt wird... Unser Tipp: Sehr empfehlenswert"! (PASCAL)
