There's a book called "How Computers Work" by Ron White that comes with
a CD that has cartoon character type electrons narrating how everything
works. Very visual, the characters race from the CPU across the bus to
the RAM and stuff like telling you what they are doing and how it's
done. Everything that we know is going on but can't see it's seen here.
