Soul in the Computer

I just finished Barbara Waugh's Soul in the Computer which can also be downloaded from HP's University Relations site is a recollection of a career spent using a for-profit corporation to try and accomplish good deeds. She relates many anecdotes about small changes that can have big effects, and draws out lessons from those events that are applicable to many day-to-day attempts to change the status quo. While the book is focused on how to make the world a better place from inside the system (whichever system one might be inside), reading it is a good idea for anyone who wants to make changes in a large organization.
