Isn't it actually the case that this book was written as part of his work at Google and therefore they OWN the copyright of the book? At least that is what I make out of this.
- gojomo 15y agoIndeed, I'd overlooked Adams' phrasing "I wrote the book in collaboration with Google". That implies some sort of formal co-authorship or sponsorship/branding was previously agreed upon, though probably not that the whole thing is a Google-owned work product. That definitely makes for a more messy analysis, especially if parts were written on company time and had contributions/review from Google coworkers.
