    Content: "He was history's most creative genius. What secrets can he teach us? The author of the acclaimed bestsellers Steve Jobs, Einstein, and Benjamin Franklin brings Leonardo da Vinci to life in this exciting new biography. Based on thousands of pages from Leonardo's astonishing notebooks and new discoveries about his life and work, Walter Isaacson weaves a narrative that connects his art to his science. He shows how Leonardo's genius was based on skills we can improve in ourselves, such as passionate curiosity, careful observation, and an imagination so playful that it flirted with fantasy. He produced the two most famous paintings in history, The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa. But in his own mind, he was just as much a man of science and technology. With a passion that sometimes became obsessive, he pursued innovative studies of anatomy, fossils, birds, the heart, flying machines, botany, geology, and weaponry. His ability to stand at the crossroads of the humanities and the sciences, made iconic by his drawing of Vitruvian Man, made him history's most creative genius"--

    Content: Following his blockbuster biography of Steve Jobs, The Innovators is Walter Isaacson's revealing story of the people who created the computer and the Internet. It is destined to be the standard history of the digital revolution and an indispensable guide to how innovation really happens. What were the talents that allowed certain inventors and entrepreneurs to turn their visionary ideas into disruptive realities? What led to their creative leaps? Why did some succeed and others fail? In his masterly saga, Isaacson begins with Ada Lovelace, Lord Byron's daughter, who pioneered computer programming in the 1840s. He explores the fascinating personalities that cr eated our current digital revolution, such as Vannevar Bush, Alan Turing, John von Neumann, J.C.R. Licklider, Doug Engelbart, Robert Noyce, Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs, Tim Berners-Lee, and Larry Page. This is the story of how their minds worked and what made them so inventive. It's also a narrative of how their ability to collaborate and master the art of teamwork made them even more creative. For an era that seeks to foster innovation, creativity, and teamwork, The Innovators shows how they happen.

    Uniform Title: Steve Jobs
    Content: Hervorragend gespielter biografischer Film über den Apple-Mitbegründer Steve Jobs (1955-2011), entwickelt nach einem präzisen und vielschichtigen Drehbuch. Die Inszenierung konzentriert sich auf drei Momente, in denen der visionäre Manager 1984, 1988 und 1998 der Öffentlichkeit jeweils ein neues Computermodell präsentiert, wobei sich Jobs hinter den Kulissen als schwierige Persönlichkeit entpuppt, die sich hitzige Wortgefechte mit Mitarbeitern, seiner Ex-Geliebten und seiner Tochter liefert. Die in drei laborähnlichen Sequenzen erzählte Charakterstudie entwirft ein differenziertes Psychogramm des Computerpioniers und verdichtet sich bisweilen zum modernen Königsdrama. - Sehenswert ab 14.

    Content: "When Jennifer Doudna was in sixth grade, she came home one day to find that her dad had left a paperback, titled The Double Helix, on her bed. She put it aside, thinking it was one of those detective tales she loved. When she read it on a rainy Saturday, she discovered she was right, in a way. As she sped through the pages, she became enthralled by the intense drama behind the competition to discover the building blocks of life. Even though her high school counselor told her girls didn't become scientists, she decided she would. Driven by a passion to understand how nature works and to turn discoveries into inventions, she would help to make what the book's author, James Watson, told her was the most important biological advance since his codiscovery of the structure of DNA. She and her collaborators turned their curiosity into an invention that will transform the human race: an easy-to-use tool that can edit DNA. Known as CRISPR, it opened a brave new world of medical miracles and moral questions. The development of CRISPR and the race to create vaccines for COVID-19 will hasten our transition to the next great innovation revolution. The past half-century has been a digital age, based on the microchip, computer, and internet. Now we are entering a life-science revolution: children who study digital coding will be joined by those who study the code of life. Should we use our new evolution-hacking powers to make us less susceptible to viruses? What a wonderful book that would be! And what about preventing depression? Hmm...should we allow parents, if they can afford it, to enhance the height or muscles or IQ of their kids? After helping to discover CRISPR, Doudna became a leader in wrestling with these moral issues and, with her collaborator Emmanuelle Charpentier, won the Nobel Prize in 2020. Her story is a thrilling detective tale that involves the most profound wonders of nature, from the origins of life to the future of our species"--From dust jacket

    Uniform Title: The Code breaker
    Content: Die RNA spielt eine Schlüsselrolle, wenn es Zellen gelingt, durch genetische Veränderung neue Strategien zu entwickeln, um einen Angriff von Viren abzuwehren. Walter Isaacson präsentiert die bahnbrechende Entdeckung der Genschere CRISPR/Cas, ihre Einsatzmöglichkeiten und die damit verbundenen ethischen Herausforderungen in einem biografischen Wissenschaftskrimi bis hin zur Verleihung des Nobelpreises im Jahr 2020 an Emmanuelle Charpentier und Jennifer Doudna. Der Autor konzentriert sich stark auf die persönlichen Seiten der Forscher*innen, ihren Alltag im Labor, die Dynamik der Zusammenarbeit und Konkurrenz. Sein zentrales Anliegen ist zu zeigen, wie wichtig die Grundlagenforschung ist, mit der Wissbegierde als Triebfeder, weitaus bedeutender als der Nutzen in der Anwendung. - Trotz der Fülle an Gesichtspunkten auf knapp 700 Seiten bleibt dabei die wissenschaftliche Sachinformation oft auf der Strecke und schwankt im Differenzierungsgrad zwischen grober Vereinfachung und schwer zugänglichen Details

    Content: "The incredible story of how New Orleans came back after Hurricane Katrina stronger than before, and how its success can be reproduced, from the man who spearheaded the efforts"--
    Content: "After seven years of service as the president of Tulane University, Scott Cowen watched the devastation of his beloved New Orleans at the hands of Hurricane Katrina. When federal, state, and city officials couldn't find their way to decisive action, Cowen, known for his gutsy leadership, quickly partnered with a coalition of civic, business, and nonprofit leaders looking to work around the old institutions to revitalize and transform New Orleans. This team led the charge to restore equilibrium and eventually to rebuild. For the past nine years, Cowen has continued this work, helping to bring the city of New Orleans back from the brink. The Inevitable City presents 10 principles that changed the game for this city, and, if adopted, can alter the curve for any business, endeavor, community--and perhaps even a nation.This is the story of the resurgence and reinvention of one of America's greatest cities. Ordinary citizens, empowered to actively rescue their own city after politicians and government officials failed them, have succeeded in rebuilding their world. Cowen was at the leading edge of those who articulated, shaped, and implemented a vision of transformative change that has yielded surprising social progress and economic growth: a drowned city identified with the shocking images of devastation and breakdown has transformed itself into a mecca of growth, opportunity, and hope"--
