Review : Bits and bytes

14 December 1996

Computers in Wayland’s 20th Century Inventions series (£10.99, ISBN 0
7502 1791 X) by Steve Parker is pricey for a 48-page hardback, but gives
children a good historical perspective on how computers began and their
importance for the modern world. Full-colour diagrams and captions show how
computers work, and explores their many applications.
