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.

Using this tool it is remarkably easy to generate both graphical and text objects which ape the products of living organisms with startling fidelity. It is fascinating to do and watch ... but ultimately rather pointless. The same could be said of this book. Levy has collected anecdotes from the various areas, mostly comput...
