Free as in Freedom (2.0)

May 4, 2012

Free online bookAndroid Cookbook

This is “Free as in Freedom 2.0: Richard Stallman and the Free Software Revolution”, a revision of Free as in Freedom: Richard Stallman’s Crusade for Free Software. It’s available in pdf format from Free Software Foundation.

Book Description

In 2002, Sam Williams wrote Free as in Freedom, a biography of Richard M. Stallman. In its epilogue, Williams expressed hope that choosing to distribute his book under the GNU Free Documentation License would enable and encourage others to share corrections and their own perspectives through modifications to his work.

Free as in Freedom (2.0) is Stallman’s revision of the original biography. While preserving Williams’s viewpoint, it includes factual corrections and extensive new commentary by Stallman, as well as new prefaces by both authors written for the occasion. It is a rare kind of biography, where the reader has the benefit of both the biographer’s original words and the subject’s response.
