Published in association with the Science Museum, London, Inventors Who Changed the World, gives readers an unprecedented insight into the minds and lives of some of the great men and women who have shaped the modern world. Discover the inspiration of some of the most important moments in the history of technology. As an invention is rarely the brainchild of a single person, Challoner also includes timelines that explain the development of an invention and pays homage to some of the other great inventors that came before and after. Beautifully illustrated throughout, it contains 20 items of rare, on-the-page memorabilia, from plans of the Wright brothers' plane to extracts from the notebook of Alexander Graham Bell.
