Benjamin Woolley explores Ada Lovelace's life. He offers a fascinating insight into how Ada personified the changing times during the first half of the 19th century. Wooley shows Ada's struggle to reconcile the Romanticism embodied by her father, the famed poet Lord Byron, and a childhood of Mathematics and Science.
