Origins of Email

“Origins of Email” masterfully chronicles the evolution of electronic communication from its inception in 1971 with Ray Tomlinson's groundbreaking first network email to its status as a global communication standard.
The book weaves together three compelling narratives: the technical development of email protocols, the social revolution of instant written communication, and the transformation of business practices through digital correspondence.
Beginning with the fundamental needs that drove early ARPANET communications, the narrative progresses chronologically through email's adoption in academia, its commercial explosion in the 1990s, and contemporary challenges like security and information overload. The book expertly balances technical details, such as the development of SMTP and standardization of email formats, with accessible explanations that help readers understand how these innovations shaped modern communication infrastructure.
Drawing from extensive primary sources, including interviews with pioneers and original technical documentation, the book offers unique insights into how email became the backbone of digital communication. While particularly valuable for IT professionals and system administrators, its exploration of email's impact on organizational behavior and social norms makes it relevant for anyone interested in understanding how digital communication has shaped our interconnected world.
The author's technical yet accessible approach ensures complex concepts are digestible while maintaining scholarly rigor.
