Groundbreaking inventions and how they came to be!

A first creative spark that leads to the next and the next, until a new invention is born!

In this bustling book, ten groundbreaking inventions that have sustainably changed our world are presented.

Learn how Ada Lovelace's code inspired Charles Babbage in his work on the first modern computer, how the technology of African American Lewis Latimer enabled Thomas Edison's light bulb, and much more.

Here, the joy of discovery is awakened: with plenty of knowledge presented in a simple and vivid way.
