Description

Code Nation traces the fascinating history of software development as a social, cultural, and technical phenomenon across American society. Beginning in government and university laboratories during the 1950s, the movement accelerated through corporate and counterculture initiatives in the 1960s and 1970s before evolving into a widespread computer literacy movement during the 1980s. As personal computing emerged as a dominant force, learning to program transformed through popular enthusiasm, innovative new platforms, and diverse commercial practices. Published by Morgan & Claypool as part of the ACM Collection II, this book examines how distributed computing and internet technologies have further shaped and amplified the learn-to-program landscape, offering readers a comprehensive perspective on how coding became integral to modern American culture and education.
