Claire L. Evans: Broad Band: The Untold Story of the Women Who Made the Internet (Paperback, 2018, Portfolio) 4 stars

Misleading Title

4 stars

The title book is a little bit misleading. The book is not limited to the influence of women on the Internet, it tells about women in computing in general. I really enjoyed learning about many biographies which have been omitted from the history of computing for a long time. The criteria for the selection of the portrayed women was not always clear to me. I loved the notes in the appendix which are a great starting point for further reading.
