David Macaulay not only demonstrates how machines do what they do-from the simplest lever to the smartest phone-but also shows how the concept behind another. Using the humorous analogy of a wooly mammoth to illustrate principles, he offers even the least technically minded reader a window of understanding into the complexities of today's technology.
