Book Description
For anyone, young or old, who has ever wondered, how do they make those?-here is an entertaining, illustrated exploration of the process behind the manufacture of everyday items.
What are bulletproof vests made of? How do they get lipstick into the tube? How much brass does it take to make a trumpet? The answers-and so much more fascinating information-can be found in HOW THINGS ARE MADE, a behind-the-machine look at everyday objects of all kinds, from guitars, helicopters, and compact discs to lawn mowers, running shoes, and chocolate.
Each page of HOW THINGS ARE MADE features informative, step-by-step text along with detailed illustrations, diagrams, and sidebars to tell the stories behind the things we sometimes take for granted but often wonder about. Did you know that Edison didn't really invent the light bulb? Or that the first bar code was on a pack of Wrigley Spearmint gum? Find out these answers and much more in HOW THINGS ARE MADE, which has a cover made of real denim with a pocket.
前一阵在一个人的书评里看到这么一句话:我读文艺书越多,我就越喜欢读科普书。我拿过来改编一下,我读“讲道理”的书越多,我就越喜欢读“讲事实”的书。事物是怎样的?为什么?如何能?用什么?尤其难能可贵的是,以一种很平实的语气,这个东西就是如此、如此、如此,做成的...
评分how things are made: from automobile to zippers 第一版是2003年,在美国出版的科普书,2008年的中译本 了解一些我们已经习以为常的日用品的发明与发展,还算有趣的科普,或者说休闲读物,还能管中窥豹美国制造业。书中列举的产品都有:历史起源或者发明由来,原理,现状,未...
评分读完,难得有这样内容这样形式的书,因此给个较高的分。 不过其实也是挑自己感兴趣的东西跳着看的。感觉内容较散,而且大量文字+示意图的形式比较难以理解。 希望以后这样的书多出一些,书个八本十本的——而且,希望能按主题归类,例如弄一本专门讲园艺方面的物件的,另一本...
评分做为科普书,算不上通俗易懂,读起来干巴巴的。看某豆友类比河童,其实和河童的东西相比,实在过于专业,远没那么有趣。图片是严谨工业制图,相当精确和古板,但是根本来说,如此详尽的日常生活用品制造流程,还是很值得一看。 没有轶闻,没有趣事,就事论事,就物论物,工具书...
评分怎么我就不是个理科生呢,读文的干吗。这书我是很喜欢的,就是太刻板了一点,解说的很具体,图文并貌。里面的许多都是很令人好奇的,但是我总是好奇的睡了过去,每晚看一篇。
