Summary
From its simple origins in the U.S. Department of Defense to its emergence as a global nervous system, the Internet has changed the way the world works. In this fascinating overview, ARPANET pioneers describe the networking technologies that gave birth to the Internet and e-mail, and Usenet trailblazers provide input on UNIX and the UUCP protocol, which opened the Internet to the world at large.
