商品描述

It is beyond trite to say the technology is prevalent in our daily lives. However, many of us remain clueless as to how much of it works. Unfortunately, even for the curious among us, the Web is not always the best vehicle to acquire such knowledge: Information appears in fragments, some of it is incorrect or dated, and much of it serves as jargon-laden discussions intended for professionals.
How Things Work - The Technology Edition (HTW) will serve as a compendium of tutorials. Each section will focus on one technology or concept and provide the reader with a thorough understanding of the subject matter. After finishing the book HTW readers will understand the inner workings of the technologies they use every day and, more importantly, they will learn how they can make these tools work for them. In addition, the book will also inform readers about the darker side of modern technology: security and privacy concerns, malware, and threats from the Dark Web.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

科技在我們日常生活中的普及已經不再是陳腔濫調。然而，我們中的許多人對於科技的運作方式仍然一無所知。不幸的是，即使對於我們中的好奇者來說，網絡並不總是獲取這種知識的最佳途徑：信息呈現為碎片，其中一些是不正確或過時的，而且其中很多都是專業術語的討論。《科技運作原理 - 技術版》（HTW）將作為一本教程彙編。每個章節將專注於一個技術或概念，並為讀者提供對主題的全面理解。在完成《科技運作原理 - 技術版》這本書後，讀者將了解他們每天使用的技術的內部運作方式，更重要的是，他們將學會如何讓這些工具為他們工作。此外，這本書還將向讀者介紹現代科技的陰暗面：安全和隱私問題、惡意軟件以及來自暗網的威脅。
