Alan Turing: The Enigma is super interesting and full of Turing awesomeness, but it's super long and I don't think I even finished it. Books like that didn't make the list. These were all satisfying reads from start to finish.
Number 1 on my to-read list is Pioneer Programmer: Jean Jennings Bartik and the Computer that Changed the World. Jennings' story is told in The Innovators but I haven't gotten around the reading her own book. I am certain it's awesome though.
The One Device: The Secret History of the iPhone was pretty good, but a bit too broad-focused for this list. It also dragged on a bit.
