Summary
A fully revised and updated edition of David Macaulay's bestselling classic The Way Things Work. Get to grips with how things work inside hundreds of machines with this extraordinary book that explains the science behind technologies and inventions. In this extensive encyclopedia packed full of simple science for kids, David Macaulay's beautiful illustrations show the inner workings of each machine, from clocks and watches to jet engines and the Internet. From the basic lever to the modern microprocessor, this bestseller has now been completely updated with the latest technologies - find out how a touchscreen works, look inside an optical mouse, and see the inner workings of a smartphone and explains every machine you've ever wanted to understand, as well as some you've probably never thought about before. With David Macaulay's inspired illustrations and humorous approach, The Way Things Work Now makes even the most complex technology fun, fascinating, and accessible for children of all ages.
