Excellent narration. Very well structured from past, present, and future. Readers will hear some formulaes mentioned.

A glimps of electrical and mechanical engineering.

Really enjoyable narrator cadence, also gave nice insight to historical context behind major inventions and how they've evolved.

Awesome narration

I loved the over-encompassing narrative on all aspects of Engineering, not just Electrical or Mechanical. This book is a great supplement to any Engineering discipline, and helps Engineers realize their roles on a global level.

Great read!

Thorough and insightful overview of modern engineering and technology and the developments therein in a pretty compact package. Would recommend

Good book

Though entitled "a degree in a book", of course it could never be. But being an engineer for 25 years, I was curious to see my profession boiled down to 11 hours.
The book is a little bit quirky, and brings with it the experience and opinions of its author. for instance, I infer that he is english, as there are so many references to English scientists. I actually don't mind this and in fact learned a little bit.
but later in the book, it seems to stray into some of the authors favorite cul-de-sacs. he seems to know lots about the space program, but then feels it necessary to lecture on fuel cells, climate change Etc.

just ok

The Mechanical part is much stronger than the Electrical portion. I am a Mechanical engineer with 15 years of experience and was looking for a refresher. The Mechanical has lots of history and solid basics. The a portion of the electrical part (Power Production and Generation) goes on a 20 minute tangent about how much better electric cars are than internal combustion engine cars. It doesn't really fit the flow of the discussion/history of the rest of the book. They try to tie it in with a morality discussion of engineering choices, but it still doesn't tie into the subject.

Mechanical portion is good, electrical is weaker

A fun ride through historic milestone inventions and engineering advances. Read by someone without the understanding of the principles and knowledge of required inflections. Worth your time to hear it all through and circle back for a detailed listen. All good stuff and never lingering long on any one topic. You will appreciate mankind and yourself more after listening.

A fire hose of information

This book is random and doesn't help you learn anything the title promises. Definitely not a degree in a book, not even the start of one. Save your money and your time. Disrespectfully upsetting.

The book says "this isn't a history book." Then talks about history.

I can’t speak for the whole book, but the first chapter was not very good at all

Not good
