Tipped onto the bottom of the title page is the label for the Scientific Computing Service Limited , 23 Bedford Square, London "Sole Agents in Great Britain". The first textbook on computer programming (and proportionately influential). The work had its genesis in a privately issued "Report on the Preparation of Programmes for the EDSAC" (1950) prepared by the University of Cambridge Mathematics Laboratory and issued to a small number of computer researchers; Wilkes felt that the paper deserved wider publication and was put in touch with the then-small Addison-Wesley Press in Massachusetts, which issued it after some revisions. The publisher, feeling at some risk in printing such a specialized work, would begin to pay royalties only after the first 1000 copies were sold.

Condizione: Near fine. First printing. First edition of this early and important work in computer programming. PREPARATION contains programming instructions for the EDSAC (Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Calculator), an early British computer built by author Wilkes and colleagues at the University of Cambridge. Known as the first textbook on computer programming, and proportionately influential, THE PREPARATION OF PROGRAMS captures an early and defining moment in the history of computer programming. As scholar Michael R. Williams has written: "EDSAC holds a prime place in the history of the world's first computers, not only because it was the first full-scale operational electronic digital computer, but because its ability to construct programs from relocatable subroutines, and to link them together at load time, provided a model for almost all others to follow. [.] It provided the basic ideas as to how one should go about creating a computing system." 9'' x 6''. Original brown cloth with gilt spine lettering. Illustrated with two black-and-white plates. 167, [3] pages. Touches of rubbing, shelfwear to cloth. Overall sound and clean.

"One of the most influential textbooks of this early era . The form of constructing programs and how they should be linked together to form a load module, as described in this book, reappears many times for different computers being constructed in different countries. It provided the basic ideas as to how one should go about creating a computing system rather than simply providing a bit of hardware to be used only by a few specialists." [Williams 1985, 337]. Minor shelf/edge wear, distributor ticket on title page, errata tipped in at rear, gilt at spine toned, else tight, bright, and unmarred. Brown cloth boards, gilt lettering. 8vo. 167 plus Index.
