<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A high-velocity chronicle of the open source movement-and its impact on computing, business, and culture<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Open source began as the mantra of a small group of idealistic hackers and has blossomed into the all-important slogan for progressive business and computing. This fast-moving narrative starts at ground zero, with the dramatic incubation of open-source software by Linux and its enigmatic creator, Linus Torvalds. With firsthand accounts, it describes how a motley group of programmers managed to shake up the computing universe and cause a radical shift in thinking for the post-Microsoft era. A powerful and engaging tale of innovation versus big business, <i>Rebel Code</i> chronicles the race to create and perfect open-source software, and provides the ideal perch from which to explore the changes that cyberculture has engendered in our society. Based on over fifty interviews with open-source protagonists such as Torvalds and open source guru Richard Stallman, <i>Rebel Code</i> captures the voice and the drama behind one of the most significant business trends in recent memory.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Glyn Moody</b> is a London-based writer who has been covering Linux almost since its inception. He has published major features on it in <i>Wired, New Scientist</i>, and <i>Salon</i>, and has written for the <i>Economist</i> and the <i>Financial Times</i>.
