Can some one explain how Bitcoin provides anonymity?

The block chain says x number of bitcoins moved from this account to that account with this transaction number. That's it - no names, no addresses, no zip codes, no countries.

I find it hard to believe that, within a computerized system, that even though no names or addresses are listed, that someone couldn’t find out who owns or controls a certain Bitcoin account.
