Over the past forty years, digital technologies have transformed our world almost beyond recognition. We spend our lives surrounded by laptops, phones, tablets and game consoles, use computers for work, playing, training and dating. This book tells the history of the appearance and development of those modest components without which this would be impossible - a transistor and its direct ancestors, a relay and an electronic lamp.
