The whole world now runs on computers. 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. - Science made exciting: Complex STEM topics become fun, accessible, and easy to understand - Expertly researched: Created in collaboration with subject experts to deliver accurate, up-to-date information - A great gift for young scientists: Inspires curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of discovery - Supports classroom learning: A valuable resource for independent reading, school libraries, homeschool curricula, and STEM educationAuthor: Jerel Dye
