I had not heard of Sherry Turkle before I read this memoir, but she has been a leading expert in how computers and technology affect our ability to connect with each other for many years. This memoir describes her journey from childhood to Harvard and on to a distinguished career as a professor at MIT, all at a time when women had immense hurdles to overcome in order to be successful at schools like these. A very interesting person.
