'A compelling narrative of the human story' TIM MARSHALL, author of Prisoners of Geography 'Lively, rich and exciting... full of surprises' PETER FRANKOPAN, author of The Silk Roads _____________ Sand, salt, iron, copper, oil and lithium. They built our world, and they will transform our future. These are the six most crucial substances in human history. They took us from the Dark Ages to the present day. They power our computers and phones, build our homes and offices, and create life-saving medicines. But most of us take them completely for granted. In Material World, Ed Conway travels the globe - from the sweltering depths of the deepest mine in Europe, to spotless silicon chip factories in Taiwan, to the eerie green pools where lithium originates - to uncover a secret world we rarely see. Revealing the true marvel of these substances, he follows the mind-boggling journeys, miraculous processes and little-known companies that turn the raw materials we all need into products of astonishing complexity. As we wrestle with climate change, energy crises and the threat of new global conflict, Conway shows why these substances matter more than ever before, and how the hidden battle to control them will shape our geopolitical future. This is the story of civilisation - our ambitions and glory, innovations and appetites - from a new perspective: literally from the ground up.

세계화된 현대 속에서 음식의 가치를 묻는 책 이 책의 저자이자 사진작가인 피터 멘젤과 방송작가인 페이스 달뤼시오는 부부이자 '물질 세계' 시리즈 파트너로, 1996년 『물질 세계의 여성』을 시작으로 지구촌 음식 문화와 자원의 불균형에 대해 문제의식을 제기한 일련의 지속적인 작업을 해왔다. 『What I Eat』은 '음식'으로 대변되는 지구 자원의 과도한 편중과 그에 따라 발생한 과도한 부족이 개인의 문제가 되고 나아가 사회 문제로 어떻게 긴밀히 연결되는지 그 유기적 과정을 단 한 장의 사진으로 웅변한다.

Consider light but strong composites, flexible building materials and finishing materials for use in architectonic projects. A short description accompanies each item, along with information on composition, technical qualities and possible uses. An application for each material featured includes a good description, illustrations and realization-related data. A survey of manufacturers and/or suppliers, complete with details on how to contact them, makes this book an indispensable source of information for professionals.
