Know-It-All Great Inventions looks at fifty of these great ideas that really did change the world. It covers a wide range, from early days (the wheel) through materials (the invention of steel and plastic) to communications (the alphabet, printing press, and Worldwide Web) and the conveniences of--relatively--modern daily life (refrigeration, indoor plumbing, and central heating). It is a sharp reminder that almost every aspect of life in the second decade of the 21st century is the result of someone's bright idea, one that they actually made work. Along the way you'll learn the stories behind each and every invention, revealing and intriguing in equal measures."--Amazon.com.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 609 Kn Shelving Cart   Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 609 Kn Lost 06/27/2018 Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 609 Kn Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
