How much technology have you taken for granted today? It is human nature to make things and to apply knowledge in ingenious ways to survive and to make life easier. From renewable energy to entertainment streaming and electric vehicles to gene-editing, technology shapes our world. The Technology Book is a guided tour to the technology of the modern world. Individual entries uncover the stories behind the most important technological breakthroughs, the problems they solve, and their lasting impacts. The simple graphics and in-depth text explain not only how technology works but also look objectively at its impact on our lives--from the life-saving effects of antibiotics to the harmful effects of single-use plastics and the spread of misinformation through social media. Combining authoritative text and memorable quotes with photographs, maps, illustrations, and infographics, The Technology Book is a fascinating and insightful exploration of the past, present, and future of technological advancement.
