The small inventions that built the modern world. Nuts and Bolts by structural engineer Roma Agrawal turns its attention to seven foundational engineering breakthroughs — and the extraordinary reach of their influence on everything around us.
Agrawal examines the nail, the wheel, the spring, the magnet, the lens, the string, and the pump, tracing their evolution from Egyptian construction sites and Neanderthal cordage to skyscrapers, spacesuits, microscopes, suspension bridges, and breast pumps. Hand-drawn illustrations bring complex principles to life, revealing the surprising connections between humanity's oldest tools and its most sophisticated machinery.
The hidden architecture of everything.
