Thanks for pointing this out (had not known of this). I am generally prejudiced against most modern authors on innovation simply because i don't see broad sweep nor depth in their presentations; there are just one or two ideas which are unnecessarily dragged out to make a book. Hence i am always interested in going back to the classics/originals which had played a pivotal role in establishing the whole domain.

If you're interested in the history of Innovation, there is another great reference to add to your list:

Technological Revolutions and Financial Capital: The Dynamics of Bubbles and Golden Ages, by Carlota Perez

This is a bedside book for any Venture Capitalist interested in the various phases a major innovation goes through. Investment bubbles being one of these phases.
