Just wanted to share the news that Turing Books, a highly-regarded technical book publisher in China, has plans to translate Programmers At Work into Chinese and publish it in book form in the coming year. I’m thrilled at the prospect and curious what the many bright, young engineering entrepreneurs in China will learn from the historical perspective and insights provided by the PC pioneers featured in the book. Will their insights and approaches cross the borders of culture and time and strike some universal chords of inspiration and technical creativity. I hope so. I believe so. We’ll soon see.

I’m a programmer in China, and I’m looking forward to this book:)

Sam, I’m excited you’re excited! They are hard at work on the translation and it should be published in 2011.
