“Innovation is what distinguishes a leader from the rest.”
In his book “The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution,” Walter Isaacson provides a well-crafted narrative on the history of innovation, from Ada Lovelace to Larry Page’s thesis, which led to the birth of Google.
The book analyzes information management (Blogger, Wikipedia, Google), the personal computer (Altair, Apple, IBM), software as a business model (Microsoft), and code and networks that foster communities sharing knowledge (Internet, GNU Linux).
