Description
| [Theodore*Gray, a man who loves "how things work," will focus on "engines," which convert energy into power. The author himself invents a transparent skeleton* model to explain why steam locomotives, automobiles, and motors work. In his previous book, "The World's Most Beautiful Illustrated Book of How Things Work," the author's passion for the fundamental handicraft technologies invented before the Industrial Revolution (locks, clocks, scales, cloth making, etc.) has now exploded with his love for machines in the form of the steam engine, internal combustion engine, and motor, the great inventions of the post-Industrial Revolution era. This is the latest work by the author of the bestselling "The Most Beautiful Book of Elements in the World. [Table of Contents] Introduction: The Engine--How it Works and Why it is Loved Chapter 1: The Steam Engine The steam engine was the first engine and remains the best engine for those who love big devices that sprinkle a very mechanical sound and smell. Although they may seem like relics of the past, steam engines and their relatives are still very much a part of the modern world. Chapter 2: The Internal Combustion Engine The internal combustion engine has changed our world more than any other engine. Half a million square kilometers of the Earth's surface is paved for the internal combustion engine. Chapter 3: Electric Motors Nothing beats the electric motor for versatility of use. There are motors that range in size from very large, as large as a bus, to as small as a bacterium. Dozens of motors do the work in the average home. Chapter 4: The Engine - Wisdom and Ingenuity Often we want our motors to do more than just turn a shaft. A great variety of mechanisms are used to shape the complex movements required to fulfill our wishes. |
