Just for Fun: The Story of an Accidental Revolutionary is a humorous autobiography of Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, co-written with David Diamond. The book explains Linus' view of himself, the free software movement and the development of Linux.
It tells Linus' life story from when he was a child, playing with his grandfather's computer, to when he had grown up and become well known. The book isn't just focused on the development of Linux itself, but also on the development of its developer.
Just for Fun has been translated into numerous languages including Finnish and Swedish, the official languages of Finland, from which Linus himself originates.
