(3) 4-6 Breakthroughs in Science and Technology series. Clearly and substantively, these books trace the development of computers and cars from as far as the seventeenth century through the present day. Although each spread addresses a subtopic, the texts read smoothly; the many sidebars, photos, and biographical sketches are well integrated. In both volumes, the answer to the title question is, of course, many different people--increasingly, in collaboration. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review includes these Breakthroughs in Science and Technology titles: Who Invented the Computer? and Who Invented the Automobile?
