Ringkasan
This book shares fascinating stories behind inventions that have changed the way we live, many of which we use every day without thinking about how they came to be. It explores how simple items like safety pins, toothbrushes, and glasses were invented, and how powerful weapons such as gunpowder and bombs were developed for war. It also looks at major industrial breakthroughs, like the steam engine and weaving machines, that transformed how things were made. The book explains how transportation evolved with the invention of cars, airplanes, and rubber tires, and how electronics such as televisions, computers, CDs, and cell phones became part of daily life. Medical advances, including antiseptic surgery and high-powered microscopes, are also covered. Along the way, readers will get to know some of the brilliant inventors and scientists like Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, Benjamin Franklin, and many others whose ideas helped shape the modern world.
