The book walks the reader through several products and processes prevalent in our lives but hardly thought about critically. It explains power grids, crosswalks, and even highway intersection plans in a detailed yet easy-to-understand way. Even for those who cannot read complicated texts, the diagrams and images explain the processes surprisingly well. This gift is perfect for those with a curious mind and restless imagination. - E.D.
