Cada página de esta enciclopedia increíblemente detallada y ambiciosa te guiará a través de la naturaleza y la tecnología que tienes a tu alrededor. Ilustraciones enormes llenan las páginas y muestran en todo detalle qué hay dentro de los objetos y los edificios para enseñar cómo funcionan, explicando principios básicos (como la fotosíntesis), así como conceptos más amplios (como la interacción de todos los seres vivos que hay en una selva tropical). Los capítulos cubren desde el cuerpo humano, las ciudades y la industria hasta el planeta Tierra; patrones de sueño, cocina, sistemas de aguas residuales, parques eólicos, esporas de hongos y placas tectónicas y mucho más. 'Cómo funcionan las cosas' es perfecto para cualquiera que tenga curiosidad sobre temas de ciencia, tecnología y matemáticas, o sobre la naturaleza y el mundo moderno en general. Each page of this mind-blowingly detailed and ambitious encyclopedia will guide you through the natural world and the technology that surrounds you. Giant, page-filling illustrations take objects apart - or take the roofs and walls off buildings - to show you how they work, explaining both basic principles (such as photosynthesis) as well as broader concepts (like how all the living things in a rainforest interact). Chapters range from the human body to cities and industry, to planet Earth, taking in sleep patterns, cooking, sewage systems, wind farms, fungi spores, and plate tectonics along the way. 'Cómo funcionan las cosas' is perfect for anyone who would like to know moro about STEM subjects at school or is simply curious about how nature and the modern world work.
