Synopsis
This book traces the development of human civilization from its humble origins in the Stone Age to the dazzling achievements of the present day, making a convincing case that invention lies at its very core. This ambitious and elegantly detailed text shows how prehistoric humans' invention of the first tools, followed by the creation of writing, propelled humanity forward into a new era of learning and progress. The author argues that society's advancement is inextricably linked to the ability to imagine and manifest new realities, from art to science, engineering marvels and social structures, with each breakthrough standing as a testament to human ingenuity. Tracing a line from cave paintings to computers, this book celebrates invention as the driving force of civilization and humanity's most potent tool for progress.
