A Light History of Hot Air
Peter Doherty
We've lit big fires and gentle flames over the ages to open our minds, to warn of danger, to brighten our way through the darkness and to allow us to read at night. This work is concerned with the world and the simple beauty of science. It also features cameos from Albert Einstein, Samuel Pepys, Charles Dickens, and Thomas the Tank Engine.
