The average rating for Inventing modern based on 2 reviews is 4 stars.

Review # 1 was written on 2012-06-17 00:00:00 David Hargis Interesting read. Very much like James Burke's "Connections" series of books, in that it shows the relationship between various inventions and cultural trends that manifested themselves in unexpected ways. Side note: The book description mentions Buck Rogers, but the book itself does not. Strange.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-05-12 00:00:00 Declan Butler Very interesting and informative. It discusses the people who contributed to inventions but did not become famous as well as the famous ones, the important inventions that shaped the modern era, and the social trends that supported and resulted from events in this time.
