“The first 25 years of Google” by daMaia
Celebrating the incredible journey of the digital giant, publisher daMaia traces the vision of founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. These two technological geniuses created Google in California in 1998 and quite simply revolutionised the use of personal computers. Since its launch 25 years ago, the search engine has forged a resounding reputation, developing cutting-edge tools such as Google Earth and Google Images. The company has also acquired sites, software and operating systems such as Youtube and Android. An exciting story!
