How it Works The Computer, 1971

How it Works The Computer, 1971 was the 11th title in the How-it-Works series, 654.  It was written by the mysterious David Carey and illustrated with typical precision by B H Robinson.  Given the rapid advance of computer technology since 1971, this is a fascinating read today – a real piece of social history.  An updated version of this book was brought out in 1979, but this is the original version
