{"product_id":"9781445150321","title":"It'll Never Work: In the Home : An Accidental History of Inventions by Jon Richards","description":"Have you ever wondered how we invented the objects that make our homes comfortable, like the television, the washing machine, the toaster? Learn all  about the history of the objects that we cannot do without in our homes in It'll Never Work: In the Home, a  book that explores the invention of household items that have become essential to our daily life and the successes and failures that have led to the comforts and entertainment that we know today.   Each title in this exciting, high-interest series looks at a different  area of technology and engineering and reveals the pioneering ideas and   scientific thinking that enabled its development, as well as exposing  those that  proved to be a dead end. Each spread examines a particular   example in depth, bringing in other similar ideas where relevant, and  revealing that experimentation and failure often pave the way to  technology success. Beautifully designed and illustrated with  infographic-style artwork, this series is an excellent technology  resource for readers aged 9 and up.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56299711824245,"sku":"9781445150321","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781445150321.jpg?v=1762786303","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781445150321","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
