Since the first stone axe and wobbly wheel, people have been inventing things to make life easier. Most of their ideas were forgotten, some were total disasters, but a few changed the world. Read about them in this book like the man who said cars would never take over from horses, the mobile telephone you could hardly lift, and the toilet that sings to you.
