The Evolution of Technology

Having sold more than 2 million copies over its lifetime, How Computers Work is the definitive illustrated guide to the world of PCs and technology. In this new edition, you'll find detailed information not just about PCs, but about how changes in technology have evolved the giant, expensive computer dinosaurs of last century into the smaller but more powerful smartphones, tablets, and wearable computing of today. Whether your interest is in business, gaming, digital photography, entertainment, communications, or security, you'll learn how computing is evolving the way you live.

This full-color, fully illustrated guide to the world of technology assumes nothing and explains everything. Only the accomplished and award-winning team of writer Ron White and artist Tim Downs has the unique ability to meld descriptive text with one-of-a-kind visuals to fully explain how the electronic gear we depend on every day is made possible. In addition to all the content you've come to expect from prior editions, this newly revised edition includes all-new coverage of topics such as:

- How smartphones and tablet PCs put the power of a desktop computer in your hands-literally

- How computing technology is linking our homes, work place, entertainment, and daily communications

- How advances such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, eBay, and smartphones are expanding our universe of friends, knowledge, and opportunity

- How increased miniaturization leads to new products, such as smartphone, smartwatches, and Google Glass

- How computing technology takes advantages of quantum physics and innovations no one even imagined a few years ago

This is the perfect book about computing to capture your imagination, delight your eyes, and expand your mind, no matter what your technical level!
