Books Descriptions
The computer and the internet are among the most important innovations of our era,
but few people know who created them. They were not conjured up in a garret or
garage by solo inventors suitable to be singled out on magazine covers or put into a
pantheon with Edison, Bell, and Morse. Instead, most of the innovations of the digital
age were done collaboratively. There were a lot of fascinating people involved, some
ingenious and a few even geniuses. This is the story of these pioneers, hackers,
inventors, and entrepreneurs?who they were, how their minds worked, and what
made them so creative. It?s also a narrative of how they collaborated and why their
ability to work as teams made them even more creative.?
