When the United States began, many countries were hundreds or thousands of years ahead of it. What made it, in less than two hundred years, the world's largest economy, the leader in scientific research and technological innovation, the longed-for destination of immigrants, and the symbol of freedom? Answer: A software.Software is the intangible genius of human beings turned into a series of instructions that are executed strictly one after the other.Julián Pérez, a Cuban mathematician and software expert, who knew practically nothing about the United States when he arrived in exile, was intrigued and patiently, with the discipline and rigor learned in his career, discovered line by line the code of that software, made up of several robust segments that are surprisingly brief: the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, The Federalist, the Amendments and other founding documents of the United States.In this book, Julián, with simplicity and ingenuity, reveals that splendid software and tells us: "this is not a history book, but a book of ideas that made history".Kiko Arocha, editor.
