I have a high interest in technology and related topics but find it hard to wrap my head around a lot of it. So I am looking for books that are all about the basics and are designed for the extreme novice.
I know “technology” is a very broad term, but honestly, anything will probably pique my interest as long as it’s easily digestible. That being said, some specific things I would like to be a bit more educated on would be; AI, robotics, future/emerging technologies, our current internet landscape and speculations on its’ future, etc.
While it is not centered on technology, Bill Bryson’s “A Short History Of Nearly Everything” will probably surprise you with its breadth and depth of what it covers (nearly everything). It’s very accessible and fun. I revisit it almost yearly and learn new things each time.
I’ve definitely been aware of that book for a long time but never got around to picking it up. Will be checking it out now! Thanks!
