How Electricity Changed the World


The modern world would not exist without electricity, which has irrevocably reshaped science, industry, and culture. This book travels from Thomas Edison's lab through the electric-powered growth of big cities to the mid-century economic boom and into the digital age. The positive aspects of electricity are discussed along with problems such as nuclear meltdowns, air pollution, and climate change.
