| Zusammenfassung: | An ambitious but accessible book exploring how seven simple engineering inventions from the pump to the spring have shaped our world, by the engineer who designed the Shard.[Bokinfo] Klappentext: In 'Nuts and Bolts', award-winning Shard engineer and broadcaster Roma Agrawal deconstructs our most complex feats of engineering into seven fundamental inventions: the nail, spring, wheel, lens, magnet, string and pump. Each of these objects is itself a wonder of design, the result of many iterations and refinements. Together, they have enabled humanity to see the invisible, build the spectacular, communicate across vast distances, and even escape our planet. |
