Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution

This is a great book. It's very informative about the open source takeoff in 1991-2000. It's made up of essays by several of the key people.

DiBona, Chris; Sam Ockman; Mark Stone. 1999. Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution. O'Reilly.
