I love Stephen Johnson, the author. His show on Prime/PBS "How we got to now" was an incredible series about how small innovations with glass, sound, and light made the modern world possible, and he does it with a lot of charm. Highly recommended for the HN audience!

I read his book with the very same title. The history of glass, hygiene, etc. especially in the context of civilization is definitely eye opening!
