Just as the title says this incredible picture filled book shows just how many forms of everyday technology work and what they look like on the inside. Locks, clocks, and scales in detail and even a few examples of old phones, radios et cetera. I am not technology inclined, nor a watchmaker, but found this book very cool and maybe even a bit of a nostalgia trip. If you know someone who loves working on gadgets or fixing older things, they will find this a thrilling read.
