Adas Legacy illustrates the depth and diversity of writers, thinkers, and makers who have been inspired by Ada Lovelace, the English mathematician and writer. The volume, which commemorates the bicentennial of Adas birth in December 1815, celebrates Lovelaces many achievements as well as the impact of her life and work, which reverberated widely since the late nineteenth century. In the 21st century we have seen a resurgence in Lovelace scholarship, thanks to the growth of interdisciplinary thinking and the expanding influence of women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Adas Legacy is a unique contribution to this scholarship, thanks to its combination of papers on Adas collaboration with Charles Babbage, Adas position in the Victorian and Steampunk literary genres, Adas representation in and inspiration of contemporary art and comics, and Adas continued relevance in discussions around gender and technology in the digital age.With the 200th anniversary of Ada Lovelaces birth on December 10, 2015, we believe that the timing is perfect to publish this collection of papers. Because of its broad focus on subjects that reach far beyond the life and work of Ada herself, Adas Legacy will appeal to readers who are curious about Adas enduring importance in computing and the wider world.
