Instant Engineering is made up of 170 pages of fascinating details about engineering theories, discoveries, or scientists. I think this is a great book if you have a teenager, as it opens up a discussion on these subjects.
The topics mentioned in the book vary from CRISPR-CAS9 to the bouncing bomb.
