A Brief History of Stuff The Extraordinary Stories of Ordinary Objects US Edition In this book, author Katie Daynes delves into the stories behind everyday objects that have become ubiquitous in our daily lives. From the humble pencil to the smartphone, each object has a unique history that reveals how it was created, evolved, and became essential to our modern way of life. This book explores the development of these objects and their impact on society over time, highlighting the often-overlooked details that have shaped our world. The book begins with the story of the pencil, which was once made from graphite and clay but now consists of plastic and metal. It then moves on to the paper clip, which was invented by a man who wanted to find a use for his unwanted scrap metal. Other objects featured include the rubber band, the zipper, and the ballpoint pen, each with its own fascinating history and evolution. Throughout the book, Daynes emphasizes the importance of understanding the process of technological evolution and recognizing the need for a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process of developing modern knowledge.
Краткая история вещей The Extraordinary Stories of Ordinary Objects US Edition В этой книге автор Кэти Дэйнс углубляется в истории, стоящие за повседневными объектами, которые стали повсеместными в нашей повседневной жизни. От скромного карандаша до смартфона каждый объект имеет уникальную историю, которая показывает, как он был создан, эволюционировал и стал необходимым для нашего современного образа жизни. Эта книга исследует развитие этих объектов и их влияние на общество с течением времени, подчеркивая часто игнорируемые детали, которые сформировали наш мир. Книга начинается с истории карандаша, который когда-то был сделан из графита и глины, а теперь состоит из пластика и металла. Затем он переходит к скрепке, которую придумал человек, желавший найти применение своему нежелательному металлолому. Среди других представленных предметов - резинка, застежка-молния и шариковая ручка, каждый со своей захватывающей историей и эволюцией. На протяжении всей книги Дайнс подчёркивает важность понимания процесса технологической эволюции и признания необходимости личностной парадигмы восприятия технологического процесса развития современного знания.
