An eminent expert on engineering, history, and design, he began wondering about the place s origins and evolution: Who built it, and how? What needs, materials, technologies, historical developments, and laws shaped it? How had it fared through the years with its various inhabitants? Sleuthing around dimly lit closets, knotty-pine wall panels, and even a secret passage but never removing so much as a nail Petroski zooms in on the details but also steps back to examine the structure in the context of its time and place.
