Abstract

Set against this formidable background, Man and the Computer will be a disappointment to those who expect a detailed, highly technical presentation. Rather, this book is a popular description of man-machine interaction via time-sharing systems, with particular emphasis on the Dartmouth experience, combined with a futuristic sketch of the ways in which such systems can benefit society.
