In the Beginning

de Brian Delf, Richard Platt · Publicada por primera vez en 1995

From cave to skyscraper, from candle to lightbulb, here in one superbly illustrated volume is the story of how almost everything began. Starting with the creation of the universe, this book explores how humans have changed the world with inventions, buildings, and other achievements. Filled with hundreds of beautiful illustrations, the book presents the story of a different topic on each double-page spread, from the development of homes to the story of powered flight, from the evolution of writing tools to the invention of weapons. - Back cover.
