Description

The Internet's impact on modern society is immeasurable. Yet, when the idea was first introduced, some questioned its value. This book offers a unique perspective on the creation of the Internet and the establishment of the Internet Engineering Task Force, drawing on the author's firsthand experience. With boundless enthusiasm and humour, Brian Carpenter recounts the journey of the Internet's growth, from post-war Britain to post-millennium New Zealand, and the science and technology behind its development.
