The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time

This chapter involves a complicated explanation by Christopher of why “...people’s brains are like computers.” Most of Christopher’s digressions include illustrations or graphics to help us understand. Why are there no illustrations in this explanation?

Christopher is comparing how the human mind works like a computer in this chapter. A computer hold facts, something we all know, and something that Christopher understands. Computers are literal. They don't ponder philosophical questions..... . This is how Christopher thinks, thus, he doesn't need to illustrate it.
