The open source saga has many fascinating chapters. It is partly
the story of Linus Torvalds, the master hacker who would become
chief architect of the Linux operating system. It is also the story
of thousands of devoted programmers around the world who
spontaneously worked in tandem to complete the race to shape Linux
into the ultimate killer app. Rebel Code traces the remarkable
roots of this unplanned revolution. It echoes the twists and turns
of Linux's improbable development, as it grew through an almost
biological process of accretion and finally took its place at the
heart of a jigsaw puzzle that would become the centerpiece of open
source. With unprecedented access to the principal players, Moody
has written a powerful tale of individual innovation versus big
business. Rebel Code provides a from-the-trenches perspective and
looks ahead to how open source is challenging long-held conceptions
of technology, commerce, and culture.
