Have you ever imagined visiting the past with full knowledge of modern information and technology? If you told people from the Middle Ages or Ancient Egypt about a telephone, a car, or electricity, they would take you for a deity or a superhero. But do you actually know how these things work?
Crafted entirely by hand, with each illustration painstakingly designed by talented artists and every fact rigorously verified by scientists and experts, creating The Book consumed over 5,000 hours. A beautiful encyclopedia of incredible inventions and discoveries throughout human history.
