YES. This book made the rounds on our entire software engineering team here at Joyent, and got to the point that people with only passing interest in the subject were reading it just to get our newly-discovered references to various nuclear disasters and near-disasters. The book -- unlike most technical non-fiction -- is written very, very well, and the snarky footnotes are themselves worth the price of admission. Highly recommended!
