Sinopse

Mind Blowing Inventions explores how some of the world's most impactful technologies arose from unexpected discoveries and improbable ideas. It examines how serendipity, unintended consequences, and persistent vision have been crucial to technological progress. Discover how the microwave oven emerged from radar technology experiments and learn about the initial skepticism surrounding heavier-than-air flight. This book emphasizes the importance of adaptability and open-mindedness in fostering innovation. The book challenges the notion of innovation as a solely deliberate act, highlighting the human element behind progress. It begins by defining key terms like invention and innovation, then branches into sections examining accidental discoveries, inventions initially deemed impossible, and the repurposing of existing technologies. By exploring historical records and inventors' accounts, the book reconstructs the complex web of events that led to these creations, demonstrating that technological advancement often follows a circuitous path.

    'You could call him Paddington,' Adam said, casually, 'Don't name him! I said, as if this was self-evident. Names turn situations into responsibilities. 
    When Mirelle Radley set off for Peru with her cousin Adam, hoping to heal her broken heart, she didn't expect to meet someone who would change the course of her life forever. 
    Meet Paddy, the Peruvian street dog who met Mirelle one night when he wandered into her eco-cabin – and refused to leave. He returned the next day, and the day after. And before long, he was following her through towns and markets and trekking alongside her through the mountains, never leaving her side. 
    He was free to go, yet he never strayed more than a few steps away. 
    As Mirelle's trip came to an end, heartbreak struck. She faced an impossible goodbye. 
    How could she leave behind Paddy – the dog, she had fallen in love with and named – who had so clearly chosen her to be his human? 
    What follows is a heart-stopping, globe-spanning adventure that reminds us that sometimes, love finds us in the most unexpected ways. 
    Part autobiography, part memoirs, this non-fiction account turns travel across South America into an intimate biography of an extraordinary bond between humans and animals. With nature as its backdrop and dogs at its heart, it’s a best, latest up-coming read to pre-order for every pets lover.

    An exuberant, incisive look at how Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater transformed a culture
    		 
    Going from a hobby toy for surfers to an Olympic sport, skateboarding has had a tumultuous history. Today, professional skateboarders land endorsement deals with Nike and Adidas, while popular television series like HBO’s Betty tell the stories of diverse crews of skaters living in New York City. So how did a fledgling subculture rise from its near-death knell in the ’90s to become ubiquitous today? It was simply a matter of finding the right messenger.
    		 
    In 1999, the bestselling video game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was released, and a new generation was exposed to skateboarding culture right in their very own homes. Kids and adults alike could now spend hours playing as actual skateboarders, learning the vernacular, listening to the music skateboarders loved, and having fun onscreen before trying to skate IRL in the driveway.
    		 
    Right, Down + Circle explores how a video game starring the most famous pro skater in the world brought skateboarding culture — and its ever-shifting markers of music, subversion, and coolness — to the masses and ultimately transformed the culture it borrowed from in the process.
