Sinopsis

"Safety Pin Saves" explores the surprisingly rich history and cultural impact of a seemingly simple invention. From its Victorian-era origins as a safer garment fastener, conceived by Walter Hunt in 1849, the safety pin evolved into a symbol of punk rock rebellion and a versatile tool across diverse fields. 

 
The book examines how this humble piece of bent wire became a cultural icon, demonstrating that even the most utilitarian objects can have a profound and lasting influence. The book uniquely integrates design analysis with historical context, revealing the safety pin's engineering design attributes and its unexpected applications in areas ranging from fashion to healthcare. 

 
It highlights the ingenious design elements—material science, mechanical engineering, and aesthetic considerations—that contribute to its enduring appeal and practical utility. Each section builds upon the last, culminating in a comprehensive understanding of the safety pin’s journey and its continued relevance in contemporary design and DIY culture.

    On Saturday, June 28, 1986, George Michael picked up his tasseled leather jacket, walked out of London’s Wembley Stadium and cheerfully tore up five years of glittering pop history. He’d just disposed of Wham!, the band he’d formed with school friend Andrew Ridgeley when they were teenagers, and now, at 23, he knew he was all grown up. He just needed to convince everyone else. Faith is what happens when you’ve outstripped your dreams, your peers, your friends and your fans, and no one’s caught up yet. It’s about pouring all of that confusion, insecurity and sizzling ambition into music that comes out confused, insecure and ambitious – and then selling 25 million copies of it. George Michael was always preparing for this and, in the process, he set a template for all disaffected singers making that move. This book examines that model and the themes that went into Faith – from engaging in politics to crossing over to a Black audience and writing classic pop songs to endure – and speaks to the surviving key players to tell the story of how it was made.
