I am reviewing a copy of Ada Lovelace and the Start of Computers through Lerner Publishing Group, Graphic Universe ™ and Netgalley:
In this short biography in the form of a graphic novel young readers will learn about Ada Lovelace and how she turned her powerful imagination into a vision of the future. She predicted the impact of computers on human life.
Ada Lovelace had a unique education and embraced mathematics. She became one of the biggest believers in engineer Charles Babbage's ideas for calculation machines. This graphic biography shows how Lovelace helped spread awareness of what an early computer could do and how she became one of the first computer programmers. It also shows how Lovelace pushed back against doubts about calculation machines and against her own self-doubt.
I give Ada Lovelace and the Start of Computers five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
