  • $\begingroup$ The first chapter of Michael Quinn's book gives you a litle bit of the stuff you mentioned but not in great detail. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Nunoxic: Quinn's book is ok, but unfortunately it really doesn't talk very much about the developments in the past 10 years, where a lot of rapid development took place. $\endgroup$
