Great Technology Fails
From the Series Searchlight Books ™ — Celebrating Failure
Technology is constantly changing the world we live in. But new tech doesn’t always catch on right away, or even work like it’s supposed to. In fact, the history of technology is filled with failures and mistakes—from computer bugs to an early version of the video phone. Discover how even successful tech companies, like Apple and Google, made major missteps along the way and learned from their mistakes.
