Music, mathematical logic, programming, speculations on <BR>the nature of intelligence, biology, and Zen are woven into a brilliant <BR>tapestry themed on the concept of encoded self-reference. The perfect <BR>left-brain companion to `Illuminatus'. <BR> <BR> <BR>∶<I>Illuminatus!: </I><BR> I. `The Eye in the Pyramid' <BR> II. `The Golden Apple' <BR> III. `Leviathan'. <BR>Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson <BR>Dell, 1988 <BR>ISBN 0-440-53981-1 <BR> <BR>This work of alleged fiction is an incredible berserko-surrealist <BR>rollercoaster of world-girdling conspiracies, intelligent dolphins, the <BR>fall of Atlantis, who really killed JFK, sex, drugs, rock'n'roll, and <BR>the Cosmic Giggle Factor. First published in three volumes, but there <BR>is now a one-volume trade paperback, carried by most chain bookstores <BR>under SF. The perfect right-brain companion to Hofstadter's `G"odel, <BR>Escher, Bach'. See {Eris}, {Discordianism}, {random numbers}, {Church <BR>of the SubGenius}. <BR> <BR> <BR>∶<I>The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: </I><BR>Douglas Adams <BR>Pocket Books, 1981 <BR>ISBN 0-671-46149-4 <BR> <BR>This `Monty Python in Space' spoof of SF genre traditions has been <BR>popular among hackers ever since the original British radio show. Read <BR>it if only to learn about Vogons (see {bogon}) and the significance of <BR>the number 42 (see {random numbers}) --- and why the winningest chess <BR>program of 1990 was called `Deep Thought'. <BR> <BR> <BR>∶<I>The Tao of Programming: </I><BR>James Geoffrey <BR>Infobooks, 1987 <BR>ISBN 0-931137-07-1 <BR> <BR>This gentle, funny spoof of the `Tao Te Ching' contains much that is <BR>illuminating about the hacker way of thought. "When you have learned to <BR>snatch the error code from the trap frame, it will be time for you to <BR>leave." <BR> <BR> <BR>∶<I>Hackers: </I><BR>Steven Levy <BR>Anchor/Doubleday 1984 <BR>ISBN 0-385-19195-2 <BR> <BR>Levy's book is at its best in describing the early MIT hackers at the <BR>Model Railroad Club and the early days of the microcomputer revolution. <BR>He never understood UNIX or the networks, though, and his enshrinement <BR>of Richard Stallman as "the last true hacker" turns out (thankfully) to <BR>have been quite misleading. Numerous minor factual errors also mar the <BR>text; for example, Levy's claim that the original Jargon File derived <BR>from the TMRC Dictionary (the File originated at Stanford and was <BR>brought to MIT in 1976; the co-authors of the first edition had never <BR>seen the dictionary in question). There are also numerous misspellings <BR>in the book that inflame the passions of old-timers; as Dan Murphy, the <BR>author of TECO, once said: "You would have thought he'd take the trouble <BR>to spell the name of a winning editor right." Nevertheless, this <BR>remains a useful and stimulating book that captures the feel of several <BR>important hackish subcultures. <BR> <BR> <BR>∶<I>The Devil's DP Dictionary: </I><BR>Stan Kelly-Bootle <BR>McGraw-Hill, 1981 <BR>ISBN 0-07-034022-6 <BR> <BR>This pastiche of Ambrose Bierce's famous work is similar in format to <BR>the Jargon File (and quotes several entries from jargon-1) but somewhat <BR>different in tone and intent. It is more satirical and less <BR>anthropological, and is largely a product of the author's literate and <BR>quirky imagination. For example, it defines `computer science' as "a <BR>study akin to numerology and astrology, but lacking the precision of the <BR>former and the success of the latter" and "the boring art of coping with <BR>a large number of trivialities." <BR> <BR> <BR>∶<I>The Devouring Fungus: Tales from the Computer Age: </I><BR>Karla Jennings <BR>Norton, 1990 <BR>
