Reviews
University of California, Berkeley's September 1991 online journal, "Current Cites" commented: "Scientific American Special Issue on Communications, Computers and Networks 265(3) (September 1991): If you purchase a single issue of a magazine this year, this should be it. Filled with eleven articles by some of the biggest names in computer networking, this issue covers all bases and includes suggestions for further readings on the issues." In addition, a
04 September 1991 post to the
University of Houston's "Computer System's Forum" also recommends the issue stating: "These articles cover enough ground that I'd recommend the issue to people getting ready to dive into the Internet or understand what is happening in networks these days." An additional post to this same forum on
21 August 1991, comments: "The authors are exceptional, including
Mitch Kapor,
Mark Weiser,
Nicholas Negroponte,
Alan Kay,
Al Gore, and many others. An excellent issue."
Response
Of this issue, the
Electronic Frontier Foundation stated in the article
Scientific American's September Issue to be Sent to All EFF Members in its
September 1991 newsletter:
» This month's
Scientific American ("Communications, Computers, and Networks") must surely represent the most complete collection of articles and commentary on all aspects of networking to date. As such we feel strongly that it should be made available to as many people as possible. Because of this, we've purchased a large number of copies of this issue that we'll be using for various purposes over the coming year. The first use will be to deliver a free copy of to all our members. We are expecting the magazines to be delivered to us at the end of next week and that'll go out to our members soon after. We realize that many of our members may already have a copy of their own, but if so we trust that that'll use this extra copy to educate and enlighten someone else to the issues and potential of networking.
