书籍简介

我们每天都使用水、电和互联网——但它们实际上是如何工作的呢？ 未来几年保持它们运行的计划是什么？ 这部非小说类科学图画小说带领读者踏上一段旅程，从基本的系统是如何开发的，到它们在当今世界的实施方式，以及它们在未来的使用方式。

通过互联网发送的初条消息是什么？ 一个人每天消耗多少水？ 电灯是怎么发明的？

对于我们每天使用的每一个实用程序，都有一段隐藏的历史——一个充满阴谋、戏剧、幽默和不平等的故事。 这部图画小说带您了解了过去的科学，并揭示了人们在发明和构建早期技术时所做的决定如何影响着今天人们使用它的方式。

《隐藏系统》充满了艺术、地图和图表，是对科学史以及现在需要做些什么来改变未来的深思熟虑、幽默的探索。

We use water, electricity, and the internet every day--but how do they actually work? And what’s the plan to keep them running for years to come? This nonfiction science graphic novel takes readers on a journey from how the most essential systems were developed to how they are implemented in our world today and how they will be used in the future.

What was the first message sent over the internet? How much water does a single person use every day? How was the electric light invented?

For every utility we use each day, there’s a hidden history--a story of intrigue, drama, humor, and inequity. This graphic novel provides a guided tour through the science of the past--and reveals how the decisions people made while inventing and constructing early technology still affect the way people use it today.

Full of art, maps, and diagrams, Hidden Systems is a thoughtful, humorous exploration of the history of science and what needs to be done now to change the future.
