Expand description
Laid out in easily accessible, two-page spreads and enhanced by scores of full-color photos, drawings, and maps, each volume supplies clear and vividly illustrated answers to the questions young people have about the technology they use every day.
This volume first reviews the electric inventions that preceded Edison's light bulb -- the battery, the telegraph, and the telephone -- and then explains how electricity has been generated, supplied, and used ever since.
