When speaking about the Wonders of the World, we mostly refer to the well-known Seven Wonders. But are there only those? Do wonders only refer to historical structures, or to giant structures that bear testimony to the ultimate capability of Man? Is the Model T Ford not a wonder? Is Mount Rushmore not a wonder? This book contains a compilation of 200 wonders, which not only includes structures, but also incidents, discoveries and works that have changed the way we think or even the way we live. Classified into Classical, Natural, Structural, Architectural, Cultural, and Technological Wonders, this book serves as a holistic guide to the wonders that have inspired us, as also to the wonders that have long gone unnoticed.
