Praise
Beyer’s meticulously researched biography shows how Hopper was one of the first to realise that software was the key to unlocking the power of the computer.—The Guardian—
Bravo to Beyer for unearthing the fascinating, many-faceted history…of a phenomenal technology we take for granted and for portraying a woman of astonishing powers.
