Excellent read, but not only for the bonus part. If anyone else enjoyed it for the EE / computer engineering part, I recomment The Soul of a New Machine, by Tracy Kidder. He followed, in a sort of embedded way, a team of Data General computer engineers in the late 70's, as they went through a death march to produce a 32-bit micro. Sort of like this blog post, but the book got a pullitzer. http://www.ancientgeek.org.uk/ed/The_Soul_of_a_New_Machine.pdf http://www.ancientgeek.org.uk/ed/The_Soul_of_a_New_Machine.p...
