About this audiobook

The Complete History of Computers: From Gears to Artificial Intelligence From wooden gears and punch-card looms to pocket supercomputers and AI that can write, see, and reason — this is the complete story of how humanity built the thinking machine. The Complete History of Computers traces two centuries of relentless innovation, beginning with Charles Babbage's mechanical dreams in the 1820s and Ada Lovelace's first computer program, through the room-sized wartime machines that cracked enemy codes, to the transistor that changed everything. Discover how a single theorem by a 21-year-old MIT student in 1937 became the blueprint for every computer ever built, how a chip the size of a postage stamp ignited the personal computing revolution, and how billions of people became connected through a network born from a Cold War thought experiment.
