Young people the world over learned their craft on the C64, but in Sweden the machine s legacy is unparalleled: it sired a raft of incredible talent who have since gone on to create amazing products and services that have, without exaggeration, changed the world. Generation 64 by Jimmy Wilhelmsson chronicles this talented group and traces their path from backroom coders to giants of the connected world. Featuring in-depth interviews with dozens of Swedish entrepreneurs. Edited by legendary C64 games journalist Julian Rignall, this 188- page hardback book features over 50,000 words, complemented by a wealth of Commodore 64 imagery, some of which has never been seen before.

Biograf�a del autor

Jimmy Wilhelmsson: I was brought up in a happy Swedish working class environment in which there was little interest in neither technology nor entreprenurship. To me, home computers became perfect tools for my teenage rebellion. I became more interested the less my parents understood. My parents did however encourage me to write. I wanted to become a teacher or a writer, later a journalist - then I grew up in a society where anyone may become just about anything. All at once. Today, I write about what I once learned in the past and connect it with today's exciting technology. I stride forward with a glance backward.
