Introduction [HTML] or [PDF format] Google full text of this book:
Before Palm Pilots and iPods, PCs and laptops, the term "computer" referred to the people who did scientific calculations by hand. These workers were neither calculating geniuses nor idiot savants but knowledgeable people who, in other circumstances, might have become scientists in their own right. When Computers Were Human represents the first in-depth account of this little-known, 200-year epoch in the history of science and technology. Beginning with the story of his own grandmother, who was trained as a human computer, David Alan Grier provides a poignant introduction to the wider world of women and men who did the hard computational labor of science. His grandmother's casual remark, "I wish I'd used my calculus," hinted at a career deferred and an education forgotten, a secret life unappreciated; like many highly educated women of her generation, she studied to become a human computer because nothing else would offer her a place in the scientific world. The book begins with the return of Halley's comet in 1758 and the effort of three French astronomers to compute its orbit. It ends four cycles later, with a UNIVAC electronic computer projecting the 1986 orbit. In between, Grier tells us about the surveyors of the French Revolution, describes the calculating machines of Charles Babbage, and guides the reader through the Great Depression to marvel at the giant computing room of the Works Progress Administration.

Egypt: Art for Death Sally Jordan January 25, 2008 I have too much stuff. I've spent half my life collecting it, pitching it, labeling it, pruning it, and being exasperated by it. Occasionally I'll scurry around in an organizing fit, moaning that my kids won't know what to do with it when I die. Egyptians had a different idea about death and their stuff. Dead folks were expected to lead normal lives in the afterlife, and in order to do that, they had to take their "grave goods" with them-jewelry, furniture, food, board games, clothes, even statues of servants. Pleasant paintings on tomb walls were crucial because scenes of hunting, dancing, and playing came to life in the next world. A person was painted as young, energetic, and "walking like an Egyptian" with all body parts clearly delineated, because what was painted was what you possessed in the afterlife. Your mummy was essential for moving around later, and, just for good measure, unbreakable sculptures were made of you in case your mummy fell apart. Artists and sculptors were highly revered in Egypt, because their skills helped to ensure an eternal paradise of beautiful pleasure. The ultimate art for death.
