A good overview of technology in the past century.

it was a pretty good summary of a whole bunch of technology in the past century. I did find it a bit strange that a lot of time was spent talking about the taking of ideas and not giving credit, and that portion was glazed over with Steve Jobs. There could have been a devoted a chapter to it and it was merely a footnote to one of technology as biggest offenders of lifting ideas and passing them off as his own.
