What are the objects, inventions, power sources and processes that have changed our modern industrial culture? Who are the individuals behind their creation? How have people reacted to these newfangled contraptions? This account explores the answers to these questions. It traces the sweeping innovations and interconnections of each advance, in a flowing text that features almost 500 photographs with captions that further explain the story of how we've become who we are today.
