After the software wars

  After the Software Wars. Keith Curtis. Lulu. 2009.

 I don’t remember how I got information about this book. I think it was an entry on a blog but I don’t remember it. I am sorry.

The issue I remember is that its argument looked very interesting: a former worker in Microsoft talking about free software!

So I got it from Lulu and read it. The table of contents looks fine and Keith Curtis talks about the idea that free software is a better election and has a great future, not only in informatics or programming, also in other items like Artificial Intelligence or Space Technology.

In three hundred pages he doesn’t contribute with a lot of new ideas; anyway, some future ideas are expressed and finally his conclusion is that the future will speak free software.

Anyway, the last part of the book results a little bit surprising for me. The writer point of view about the issue of using free software is that it will be the better option for the free and uncontrolled market, looking it with the republican political eyes. And this is that susprises me because is the first time that I read something like this. In my opinion, in Europe at least, the social and political support of free software comes from lefts more than rights.
