What is a computer, how does it work, what are they being used for and what role may they play in the future? Big impactful photos fill the pages highlighting the science and technology at work. These pieces of technology are infiltrating all areas of our lives, including the home, our social life, the world of work, health and education. The supportive functions and the sinister elements are all explored. From smartphones in our pockets to weather-mapping super computers, we're now connected through these clever machines. They play an increasing role in our lives, but are we telling them what to do or will computers be controlling us one day?
