Over the past decades, Ada Lovelace herself has become a surprise underground star for digital pioneers all over the world, starting with Alan Turing, but also for female scientists in general. Ada's Algorithm, tells the story of Ada Lovelace's turbulent private life as the poet's daughter and her exceptional achievement. It traces how her scientific peers failed to recognise the extraordinary break-through she had made in the middle of the 19th century. If they had, the computer age could have started almost two centuries ago.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Today her fame continues to grow and may soon rival her father's, a tribute to her singular determination and inspiring personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gibson Square\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783340712\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256","brand":"James Essinger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42334507073717,"sku":"9781783340712","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_8ac2ffee-3743-408a-b8df-7b15531cf7b7.jpg?v=1660628387","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/adas-algorithm-how-a-twenty-one-year-old-launched-the-digital-age-through-the-poetry-of-numbers-9781783340712","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
