Among the modern-day (male) tech entrepreneurs profiled, the volumes on nineteenth-century chemist and physicist Curie and early-twentieth-century nuclear physicist Wu feel pro forma; contemporary female technology pioneers are out there. Timeline. Glos., ind. Review covers these Zoom In on Technology Pioneers titles: Bill Gates, Chien-Shiung Wu, Jeff Bezos, Jerry Yang, Marie Curie, Steve Jobs.
