About the Book: Source Code: My Beginnings
Everyone is programmed a bit differently. Source Code tells the human, personal
story of how Bill Gates became who he is today. Taking us back to his
beginnings, Gates describes with candour his childhood in Seattle, the
centrality of family ? his close relationship with his card-playing grandmother

love of coding and computing at the dawn of a new era,
