A Bibliography of the Personal Computer: The Books and Periodical Articles

A Bibliography of the Personal Computer: The Books and Periodical Articles, 9780968910849 (096891084X), Allan Publishing, 2005

This bibliography has been abstracted from my book entitled “A History of the Personal Computer: The People and the Technology” (ISBN 0-9689108-0-7). It has been updated to add additional books and new books released between 2001 and 2005. It has also been rearranged to facilitate its use as a separate publication. The content of this eBook is a copy of my paperback book with the same title (ISBN 0-9689108-4-X) – First Edition 1.0.

Part One of the eBook is a bibliography of books and Part Two is a bibliography of periodical articles. We do believe that this bibliography is the most extensive available in reference to the history of the personal computer and the industry. The author would appreciate advisement of any errors or omissions.

Part Three is a reprint of an article written by the author entitled “What Was The First Personal Computer?” It was first printed in The Analytical Engine, May 1996 issue, Volume 3.3, pp. 42-46, a Journal of the Computer History Association of California. The reprint has been adjusted to correct an editorial error noted in the Fall 1996 issue, page 33 of the journal. This journal was discontinued after the Fall 1996 issue.
