Hidden Systems

Underneath ordinary life runs a great deal of machinery we rarely see. The pricing that shifts as we watch, the maintenance that keeps everything from falling apart, the quiet systems that decide what we trust and what we pay. These books pull back the surface of everyday things and show how they actually work, because the world feels far less bewildering once you can see its wiring.
