* open to all recommendations * prefer books / focus on STEM


Have a look at https://www.amazon.com/Diffusion-Innovations-5th-Everett-Rog... It is not history, but I remember having read it from cover to cover and gaining a historic insight in the process


The Innovators by Walter Issacson

A History of Modern Computing 2ed by Paul Ceruzzi

The Innovator's Dilemma by Clayton Christensen

Connections by James Burke (also a PBS series)


cf Burke's Connections
