How to find an illustrated book about the history of computer graphics and artificial intelligence if you forgot the name?

In the early nineties, I had a beautifully illustrated popular science book devoted to two topics: computer graphics and artificial intelligence, or rather, about the history of the development of these industries. One bad person took the book to read and did not return it. Unfortunately, I do not remember its name, so it is problematic to find this edition. Perhaps someone had the same book, and you can tell me its name - I really want to find it and reread it.
Distinctive features: the book is divided into two sections, but they are not located one after the other, but each begins on its own side of the cover and "converges" to the center of the book. The book is translated (it seems to be a translation from the American edition). The essence of the title of each of the sections is something like this: about graphics - "at first it seemed to us that everything was so complicated", about artificial intelligence - "at first it seemed to us that everything was so simple."
The book included a description of the first modest attempts to create neural networks, a description of the principles of perceptrons and computer vision, as well as the history of the creation of the first graphic monitors, and the first films with computer graphics (Tron, The Last Starfighter and, of course, Star Wars wars").
