Background:
Weber has held academic fellowships with the Council on Foreign Relations, served as special consultant to the president of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development in London, and worked with the U.S. State Department and other government agencies on foreign policy issues, risk analysis and forecasting. In 2000, he was a consultant to the U.S. Commission on National Security in the 21st Century, which issued a blue ribbon report to Congress shortly before the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and he was in Manhattan the day of the attack. Weber is a long time consultant on global political economy issues for Global Business Network (www.gbn.com), a member of the Monitor Group.
He has done local, state and national interviews, including broadcast. On whether Americans are safer today than on Sept. 11, 2001, he’s offered powerful quotes such as these: "Make no mistake though: we're dealing with an adversary that adapts and is entirely capable of designing around everything that we do. The risk is that we have become very good at protecting ourselves against yesterday's threat, and are unaware of tomorrow's. If we've improved the security of 10,000 soft targets in this country, there exist another 20,000 or more that remain shockingly vulnerable."
"The core reality of homeland security is that we can't protect everything, we can't protect everyone, and we can't protect everyone equally. Which means that we are at the very early stages of a longer game, a game in which the attacker has an advantage over the defender because the attacker can pick the time and place to strike. The way to win in this game is through intelligence, not security per se. And our intelligence operations are barely better than they were on September 10, 2001. In the medium and long term, that is where our effort needs to go."
Weber's major publications include "The Success of Open Source," "Cooperation and Discord in U.S.-Soviet Arms Control," and the edited book "Globalization and the European Political Economy." He also co-authored "The End of Arrogance: America in the Global Competition of Ideas" (2010).

关于开源,理解的很深刻的一本书~开源,并不仅仅是一场代码的革命,而是一种社会组织生产方式的变革。

这本书翻得太差,又言之无物,简直不知所谓。

开源的组织方式真的是未来人来生活方式的预演吗?很期待。另,本书翻译的有些烂。

中国人什么时候明白了开源什么时候代码也能写的漂亮点

似乎没有看到更好的关于开源历史的介绍?开源的精神气质应该看《大教堂与集市》。至于开源模式,现在的分析也够多了,似乎这就应该是互联网带来的最大的改变,一种新型的组织技术。但是,似乎仍然没有足够分量的关于开源、闭源的讨论,足够使人理解现在与将来的组织(如果开源很棒,为什么只有基层部分开源才有巨大的成功,应用层上仍然是闭源优秀?)
