Engineers Making a Difference: Inventors, Technicians, Scientists and Tech Entrepreneurs Changing the World, and How You Can Join Them

Engineers Making A Difference is a brilliant book using the careers of experts in their fields to illustrate different aspects of engineering in the 21st Century. After a section introducing the engineer, there is further information about the engineer's work and career path.

This book is brilliant as both a dip in resource or as a 'read in full' volume and is beautifully illustrated with graphical illustrations and portraits of the featured engineers. Engineers Making A Difference is a collaboration between Imperial College London and What On Earth Publishing to produce a resource promoting STEM subjects It was supported by funding from the Gatsby Charitable Foundation, set up by Lord Sainsbury, for science, education and arts projects.

Engineers Making A Difference by Dr Shini Somara is an excellent addition to the bookshelves of children and teenagers or a young person interested in science, technology and engineering. Equally it would be a most helpful addition to a school library requiring the purchase of three copies as it could equally be shelved on the science, biography or careers sections! Highly recommended.
