Innovation Nation: Canadian Leadership from Java to Jurassic Park
Canada may be a nation born from the industrial promise of a railroad connecting its disparate land and people, but its future is being built by the entrepreneurs and innovators who've earned a place in the global technology sector. Thirty of the country's most interesting tech leaders are profiled in Innovation Nation: Canadian Leadership from Java to Jurassic Park, a gung-ho collection that puts aside traditional Canuck bashfulness and celebrates homegrown innovators, financiers, entrepreneurs, and visionaries. "The notion that Canadians are world-class technologists is not particularly top-of-mind when defining the Canadian identity, " write the book's authors. "For those outside Canada. . . the idea of Canada as an Innovation Nation is even more foreign. Times, though, have changed. " From the inventor of Java to an eBay cofounder and the creators of the addictive BlackBerry wireless e-mail pager, each of these True North success stories builds the case for Canada as a nation of innovators. Aspiring entrepreneurs and techies will find this book a great source of inspiration and advice. For skeptics, it's a slice of humble pie. --Craig Silverman Author(s): Leonard Brody Ken Grant Matthew Holland. Binding Paperback. Publisher(s): Wiley. Label: Wiley.
