"How Not to Network a Nation" explores the contrasting efforts of the Soviet Union and the United States to develop national computer networks between 1959 and 1989. Through detailed analysis and archival research, Benjamin Peters examines why the American ARPANET succeeded while Soviet projects like OGAS ultimately failed, highlighting the roles of government, bureaucracy, and institutional cooperation. The book offers insights into the rise and fall of Soviet cybernetic ambitions and considers their relevance to the modern, interconnected world.
