Summary: What do engineers do and why do they do it? In this book the author goes straight to the engineers themselves -- 46 of them -- to find out. You'll meet people from apprentices to technicians, professors to entrepreneurs. They'll tell you in their own words about their work -- making fabric out of carbon dioxide or packaging out of chicken feathers, building earthquake-safe structures or comfortable prosthetic limbs, and so much more. These are some of the world's most amazing change-makers, who combine their passion with their work to make the world a better place. Why not become one of them to help solve the challenges of the futures?
