Ti sei mai chiesto come funzionano realmente le invenzioni, i gadget e i dispositivi che ci circondano? scopri i meccanismi nascosti della tecnologia quotidiana con questa guida grafica. How technology works svela i meccanismi che tengono in moto il mondo moderno, da semplici oggetti come cerniere e apriscatole ai dispositivi più recenti e sofisticati dell'era dell'informazione, tra cui orologi intelligenti, assistenti digitali personali e auto senza conducente. Include invenzioni che hanno cambiato il corso della storia, come il motore a combustione interna, nonché tecnologie che potrebbero essere la chiave per la nostra sopravvivenza futura, tra cui celle solari e nuovi tipi di agricoltura per nutrire una popolazione in crescita. Per tutto il libro, le spiegazioni passo dopo passo sono supportate da una grafica semplice e originale che smonta i dispositivi e mostra come funzionano. Il capitolo iniziale spiega i principi alla base di molti dispositivi, dalla meccanica di base all'elettricità alla tecnologia digitale. Da lì in poi, i dispositivi sono raggruppati per applicazione, come la casa, i trasporti e l'informatica, rendendoli facili da trovare e posizionando dispositivi simili uno accanto all'altro. How technology works è perfetto per chiunque non abbia ricevuto una formazione in materie stem a scuola o sia semplicemente curioso di sapere come funziona il mondo moderno.
