Politics & Prose Bookstore and Sixth & I Present WALTER ISAACSON
So, who invented the Internet? After his acclaimed biography of Apple genius Steve Jobs, Isaacson widens his focus, recounting the history of technological innovation as a group biography. The story begins with Ada Lovelace (1815-1852) and continues with recent figures, such as Alan Turing and Steve Wozniak. But for every familiar digital hero, Isaacson introduces many obscure partners and assistants; similarly, his analysis of the skills, knowledge, and bravado behind the achievements includes a look at wrong turns and near misses.
