The rise of the computer

Anthony Ralston

Nature, 2005, vol. 437, issue 7060, 816-816

Abstract: Hear here The alphabet soup that is the early history of the computer — MONIAC, UNIVAC, EDSAC, LEO and eventually IBM — is tackled in Mike Hally's book Electronic Brains. And if you are quick, you should be able to hear the radio series that spawned the book on BBC Radio 4's peerless Listen Again service. → www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/science/electronicbrains.shtml
