Features: This book introduces the public to fundamental questions such as what computers are, how we create them, how they operate, what they can do, whether they can think, and what their future development means, using simple yet profound language. Computers are humanity's wonderful invention, and they will ultimately combine science and technology history to deeply discuss the interesting metaphor of "slaves of the machine," guiding people to seriously contemplate the future of computers. Pulitzer Prize winner Douglas Hofstadter highly praised this book.
