Reader Reviews:
A concise and fact filled history of technology (1/7 people found this helpful)
On the whole an excellent reference book, with good ilustrations and clear explanations. However, a pity that the turret lathe does not get a mention.
A fascinating alternative history of mankind. Excellent. (16/16 people found this helpful)
I was hooked. One of those books you start off dipping into here and there, and end up losing yourself in. Every page is packed with fascinating, quirky and revealing facts, and the hundreds of colour illustrations throughout are excellent. I have bought several to give to relatives (young and old) as Christmas presents. Highly recommended.
