How does a transistor amplify ??

The actual Process Involved in amplification produced by an amplifier.
I mean just by keeping a high resistance in the path of a low current,
does not seem to explain it [ more over seems wierd ] .... i am not
looking forward to a steriotypic answer... but an explanation that
explains why current will flow towards collector from base inspite of
high resistance rather than the low resistance path that allows it to
just flow back to emitter through base !
