Book excerpt: The world would be a poorer place without great British inventions—from cat’s eyes to crossword puzzles, tarmacadam to telephones, steam engines to shorthand, pneumatic tires to penicillin. The Bank of France was the brainchild of Scotsman John Law, while Hubert Cecil Booth invented the "Puffing Billy," the first powered vacuum cleaner. John Walker discovered matches (he called them "congreves") after coating the end of a stick with chemicals, then striking it. And where would we be without flush toilets? Invented by Sir John Harrington, not Thomas Crapper, as many believe. The Brits are an inventive lot, also responsible for lawnmowers, radar, fire extinguishers, tin cans, chocolate bars, hypnotism, DNA fingerprinting, the sandwich, and the World Wide Web, developed by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989. Whatever next?

Download or read book Inventions That Didn't Change the World written by Julie Halls and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2014-12-09 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A captivating, humorous, and downright perplexing selection of nineteenth-century inventions as revealed through remarkable–and hitherto unseen–illustrations from the British National Archive Inventions that Didn’t Change the World is a fascinating visual tour through some of the most bizarre inventions registered with the British authorities in the nineteenth century. In an era when Britain was the workshop of the world, design protection (nowadays patenting) was all the rage, and the apparently lenient approval process meant that all manner of bizarre curiosities were painstakingly recorded, in beautiful color illustrations and well-penned explanatory text, alongside the genuinely great inventions of the period. Irreverent commentary contextualizes each submission as well as taking a humorous view on how each has stood the test of time. This book introduces such gems as a ventilating top hat; an artificial leech; a design for an aerial machine adapted for the arctic regions; an anti-explosive alarm whistle; a tennis racket with ball-picker; and a currant-cleaning machine. Here is everything the end user could possibly require for a problem he never knew he had. Organized by area of application—industry, clothing, transportation, medical, health and safety, the home, and leisure—Inventions that Didn’t Change the World reveals the concerns of a bygone era giddy with the possibilities of a newly industrialized world.
