Steve and the rest of you lot;

While not entirely an academic body of Work, the BBC had a series (3) of
programs entitled "Connections" hosted by the inimitable James Burke. He
also wrote a book on the "Connections" theme. I think that the
"Connections2" series was the best. The "Connections" series spawned
"Richard Hammonds' Engineering Connections" last program rundates in 2011.
That may be of some interest. The RHEC is available to National Geographic
subscribers.

Ed, the Ottawa one.

Any suggestions for a book on the subject that will blow me away?

Regards,
Steve

I remember the Connections series from maybe the 1970's.  It was a very, 
very good series.  I even bought the book and still have it around here 
somewhere.  I made my daughter read it when she was about 12.  She 
learned a great deal from it.

Gonna have to see if I still have the book, now.
