Sobre este producto
  • From Babbage’s Analytical Engine to today’s quantum computers, computing has made breathtaking progress. This book explores key milestones, pivotal figures, and transformative innovations that shaped our digital world. We begin with mechanical calculators and the visionary ideas of Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace. We then examine the code-breaking Colossus and the first general-purpose electronic digital computer, the ENIAC. The transition from vacuum tubes to transistors reduced computer size and increased capabilities. Integrated circuits, microchips, and the microcomputer revolution followed. Personal computing and industry giants like Apple, IBM, and Intel emerged. Software evolved, including operating systems, programming languages, and the internet and mobile computing. Finally, we explore the exciting future of artificial intelligence, machine learning, quantum computing, and other cutting-edge technologies. The narrative emphasizes the human element, celebrating both celebrated figures and unsung heroes whose work was crucial to advancement. It aims to make complex technical concepts accessible, combining narrative storytelling with clear explanations and relatable examples. This journey through computing is about human ingenuity, perseverance, and the expanding possibilities of the digital age.
