This new edition of the computer hacker's lexicon includes more than 200 new entries and updates and 175 revisions. It also supplies additional background on existing entries and clarifies the murky origins of several important jargon terms--while still retaining its wit and humor.

Review

This third edition of the tremendously popular Hacker's Dictionary adds 100 new entries and updates 200 entries. In case you aren't familiar with it, this is no snoozer dictionary of technical terms, although you'll certainly find accurate definitions for most techie jargon. It's the slang and secret language among computer jocks that offers the most fun. Don't know what the Infinite-Monkey Theorem is? Or the meaning of "rat dance?" It's all here. Most people don't sit down to read dictionaries for entertainment, but this is surely an exception.

"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
