Produktbeschreibung

Take a lively, sweeping look at some of the most important light-bulb moments in the development of inventions. Find out how one idea often led to another, and revealed something new and exciting about our world. From ancient lighthouses to 3D movies, 5,000 year old writing led eventually to the internet and so much more, packed into a trail of discovery with brilliant writing and humorous illustrations. You'll also find daft ideas (spectacles for horses, why not?) and wayward predictions - um, the end of the Internet was going to happen in 1996... (the guy ate his words, literally.)
