| Engines of Ingenuity is an intellectual and visual journey of discovery that takes us briefly into the worlds of Daedalus, da Vinci and Newton, all of which are places contrived to entangle a man’s sensibilities. "Metaphysics! Quantum physics! Take your pick! See the Natural Laws turned upside down and stood upon their heads." All the objects featured in this book were made by Kit Williams, and all reflect his totally inimitable style. |
Engines of Ingenuity is a fitting successor to his previous publications which include the international bestseller, Masquerade.
