Customer Reviews

Excellent book

Excellent and entertaining book. Just start with the story 'Living La Vida Robot'.I particularly enjoyed Koranteng Ofosu-Amaah's writing too and would recommend this book to anyone looking for well written pieces. Excellent book to read when travelling, and a great gift for the technophile in your life. I have already ordered the 2007 followup to this book!

Some of the best writing in technology comes together under one cover, compiling works from authors who work in everything from computers and digital mediums to health and science fields. Both college-level collections strong in technology and general-interest public lending libraries will find THE BEST OF TECHNOLOGY WRITING most accessible: a collection of polished essays which invite both technology readers and the general public into the world of possibilities.

Great collection of Technology Related Articles

All of the articles in this first annual addition of The Best of Technology Writing are great picks. The articles range from an interesting robot competition in "La Vida Robot," a great article on "The Bookless Future," (and many other articles on what's happening on the Internet (trends, security, etc.), to the strange history of "The Ups and Downs of Jetpacks." Looking forward to the next edition.
