With its cover and creative illustrations by David Macaulay, this book is a comprehensive visual guide that explains the principles of various machines and technologies, from levers and lasers to windmills and Wi-Fi. Its original cover layout is made up of intricate illustrations of mechanical parts, perfectly illustrating the theme of the book. It is a very interesting encyclopedia, from the illustrations to the content. And the cover design of the book reflects the fun of graphic design through typography, illustrated elements, and hand-drawn illustrations.
