Description
Written by two American journalists who were joint-authors of Shoo Fly Pie to Die and Mother's Day, this book chronicles the rise of a gang of computer hackers known by the acronmym MOD (Masters of Deception). Its members, teenage boys from New York City's poorest neighbourhoods, souped up their primitive personal computers, perfected their skills, and in the 1980s became highly sophisticated hackers.
