Nikil Saval is an editor of n+1. He lives in Philadelphia. This is his first book. His first two real jobs were as an editorial assistant in publishing companies—in cubicles.

評分Saval's lively descriptions and period detail are almost as tedious as actually working in an office. I finished the book versed in the history of office technologies but no wiser as to how to treat one's work.
