Once we step on the treadmill of progress, it's hard to step off. Yet Edward Tenner shows that human ingenuity can be applied in self-preservation as well, and he sheds light on the ways in which the users of commonplace technology surprise designers and engineers, as when early typists developed the touch method still employed on today's keyboards. And he offers concrete advice for reaping benefits from the devices that we no longer seem able to live without. Although dependent on these objects, we can also use them to liberate ourselves.

Where would we be without the humble toothbrush? What about a wine glass, a pair of high heels or the toilet? Comedian Katy Brand explores the extraordinary stories behind ordinary objects to help us appreciate the little things that make life so much more liveable.

Or that our beds are a reflection of our attitudes to sleep, sex and status?

In High School Physics we learn about Electricity and how we can measure the power of Electrons, the Voltage, the speed of the flow or Amperage and the Resistance to flow, which is how we get work done using the force of Electricity. Since we use this type of electricity we are all familiar and can take it for granted. Recently, however, a new kind of Electron has been discovered. This electron becomes 'Entangled' with another one and this is the basis for what I call the 'Soul-Mate' effect. In short, this new kind of married electron has a completely new level of power that is far greater ...
