This books is very cool- a really solid coffee table book. Each section is rather short (between 5 and 10 paragraphs per section).  It is full of fascinating images (and the glossy paper they use smells divine!). The content ranges from ancient times and covers into the modern era. Overall a great book. Not one you can read in one sitting, but one that you can have on your table for years and enjoy in short bits at a time. 

What do I see on a flick through:
Steam Power
Bluebird 566 Radio
The terminal at Kennedy Airport
Cutlery
Saab Car
Polyprop chair
The Sex Pistols album cover
Urban Bikes
iPhone5
Cast iron Cooking pot

This book is fun!!!!!
