The history of technology you probably know is one of men and machines, garages and riches, alpha nerds and brogrammers — but female visionaries have always been at the vanguard of technology and innovation. In fact, women turn up at the very beginning of every important wave in technology. They may have been hidden in plain sight, their inventions and contributions touching our lives in ways we don’t even realize, but they have always been part of the story. In “Broad Band: The Untold Story of the Women who Made the Internet” (Penguin Random House), Claire L. Evans finally gives these unsung female heroes their due with her insightful social history of the women who made the Internet what it is today.
