When Volume One of The Way Things
Work was published it was praised on
every hand. In the words of Time Maga-
zine: "In this technological age, the
world has long been divided into two
camps. There are those who want to
know how the complex machines that
are so much a part of their lives really
work; and there are those who couldn t
care less, as long as the machines some-
how keep functioning. For those who
nourish any technical curiosity at all,
this lucid book provides a thorough col-
lection of answers."
Now this second and new volume of
the now-classic illustrated encyclope-
dia of technology provides 171 more
concise, lucid explanations (each one
clearly illustrated with a facing diagram)
of the principles, processes and ma-
chines of the industrial age, from the
simple to the complex-
-from aerosol sprays to SCUBA ap-
paratus,
--from VTOL aircraft to color televi-
sion (explained in full color),
--from silos and silage to time-divi-
sion multiplexing,
--from safety binding for skis to mine
ventilation,
and many more things you have often
