One modern world.This 2-in-1 book tells the linked story of the two upheavals that built the world you live in. The first changed how humanity understands reality. The second changed how humanity lives, works, and moves. Together they carry you from the quiet rebellion of a handful of stargazers to the roar of the first factory floors.Part One: The Scientific RevolutionFor more than a thousand years, the stars circled the Earth, the four humors ruled the body, and the words of Aristotle were treated as law. Then, between the 16th and 17th centuries, a small group of stargazers, artisans, doctors, and philosophers began to ask harder questions - and would not stop.Part Two: The Industrial RevolutionOne of the most dramatic shifts in human history. What began as a wave of invention turned into a complete transformation of how people lived, worked, and thought - with breakthroughs and costs in equal measure.
