Our world has been transformed beyond recognition, particularly in
the twentieth century, and so were our lives and our aspirations.
Throughout James May's Magnificent Machines, our Top Gear guide
explores the iconic themes of the past hundred years: flight, space
travel, television, mechanised war, medicine, computers, electronic
music, skyscrapers, electronic espionage and much more. But he also
reveals the hidden story behind why some inventions like the
Zeppelin, the hovercraft or the Theremin struggled to make their
mark. He examines the tipping points - when technologies such as
the car or the internet became unstoppable - and gets up close by
looking at the nuts and bolts of remarkable inventions. Packed with
surprising statistics and intriguing facts, this is the ideal book
for anyone who wants to know how stuff works and why some stuff
didn't make it.
