What do flashlights, the British invasion, black cats, and seesaws have to do with computers? In Code, they show us the ingenious ways we manipulate language and invent new means of communicating with each other. And through Code, we see how this ingenuity and our very human compulsion to communicate have driven the technological innovations of the past two centuries.Using everyday objects and familiar language systems such as Braille and Morse code, author Charles Petzold weaves an illuminating narrative for anyone who’s ever wondered about the secret inner life of computers and other smart machines.
It's a cleverly illustrated and eminently comprehensible story—and along the way, you'll discover you've gained a real context for understanding today's world of PCs, digital media, and the Internet. No matter what your level of technical savvy, Code will charm you—and perhaps even awaken the technophile within.
这是一本讲述计算机工作原理的书。不过，你千万不要因为“工作原理”之类的字眼就武断地认为，它是晦涩而难懂的。作者用丰富的想象和清晰的笔墨将看似繁杂的理论阐述得通俗易懂，你丝毫不会感到枯燥和生硬。更重要的是，你会因此而获得对计算机工作原理较深刻的理解。这种理解不是抽象层面上的，而是具有一定深度的，这种深度甚至不逊于“电气工程师”和“程序员”的理解。中文是第一版 ( , 下载次数:
