        I loved Ellen Ullman's Life in Code, especially for 1) her fierce chapter on MOOCs and 2) getting a feel for what SF was like post hippies, pre tech boomhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31450584-life-in-code …

        Does the first 400 pages of Greater Gotham count? Surprisingly relevant to modern SF—period of great technological, social, and political change.
