Saw this in the university library the other week, and almost postted
about it. I'd like to add: it is freely available avilable in PDF
(
http://mitpress.mit.edu/books/full_pdfs/Street-Fighting_Mathematics.pdf
) and (if I remember rightly) the author effusively thanks the authors
of ConTeXt (and the other free software used in the book's production)
in three different places :-).
