The Soul of A New Machine
📚 Why We Recommend ItIf you’ve ever wondered what lies behind the “magic” of tech breakthroughs—beyond code and circuit boards—The Soul of a New Machine is your answer. Written by Tracy Kidder, a Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winner, this book isn’t just a history of computers; it’s a gripping, human story of ambition, chaos, and ingenuity.
Kidder takes readers back to 1981, chronicling one company’s high-stakes race to launch a new microcomputer. What makes it timeless? It’s not just about outdated tech—he captures the heart of the tech industry: the feverish pace that pushes teams to burn the midnight oil, the “go-for-broke” courage that makes or breaks startups, and the quiet passion of the people who turn ideas into machines. Even decades later, as computers have evolved beyond recognition, this core spirit of tech culture remains unchanged.
