- A Life from Beginning to End

Om Ada Lovelace

Discover the remarkable life of Ada Lovelace... As the sole legitimate child of Lord Byron, Ada Lovelace was the progeny of literary royalty. Many might have naturally expected her to go into the field of her father, but instead of delving into poetry, she delved into the hard sciences of mathematics and analytic thinking. Even so, Ada still had the imagination of a lyricist when writing scientific treatises, at times referring to her own work as nothing short of "poetical science." Everything she did, she did with passion and dogged determination. It was this drive that led Ada to look farther and search deeper than her contemporaries. Her unique vision led her to become one of the pioneers of the modern computer and one of the world's first computer programmers. But what exactly do we know about Ada Lovelace, and how can it be quantified? Read this book to find out more about the nineteenth-century mathematician and writer Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace. Discover a plethora of topics such asThe Daughter of Lord and Lady ByronEarly Years of ParalysisThe World's First Computer ProgrammerRumors and Laudanum AddictionA Grim PrognosisLast Days and DeathAnd much more!
