The objects that fill our everyday environment such as streetlights and railway tracks are so familiar we hardly notice them. Larger, more exotic facilities like nuclear power plants have transformed vast tracts of the landscape. This, "one of the most magical books I've ever chanced upon" (Alain de Botton, "The Observer"), is a compelling guide for those who want to explore the world created by man.
