They're everywhere, from your pocket phone to your microwave oven. But, what exactly is a computer? How could you possibly build machines that calculate things, play video games, and dim the lights on command? Professor Isabella Brunel, Victorian Era Computer Expert (and a Tyrannosaurus Rex), narrates a screwball comedy romp through the fundamentals of computer architecture. The madcap cast teaches you how these extraordinary devices really work, but the book's real message is this: technology is not magic, it's created by human beings, and what other people have figured out, you can understand too.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jerel Dye","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":45665996800188,"sku":"9781626727663","price":19.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/8559\/2764\/files\/BNCImageAPI_8aad237b-2989-4a79-bb3f-c764e8f322b2.jpg?v=1767736250","url":"https:\/\/wordsquirrelbooks.com\/products\/9781626727663","provider":"Word Squirrel Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
