Adapt: How We Can Learn from Nature's Strangest Inventions Description
Adapt: How We Can Learn from Nature's Strangest
Inventions
Nature's creations are more sophisticated and elegant than anything
humans have created. Geckos can run upside down along ceilings.
Termite mounds can stay cool in the desert without air
conditioning.,
Adapt explores how we can harness such ideas through the
ground-breaking new science of biomimicry - which looks to nature
to solve pressing problems in engineering and science. From the
depths of the oceans to the ice sheets of the Arctic, Amina Khan
talks to the researchers at the forefront of this exciting new
science, who are designing everything from wind turbines to
military camouflage. An entertaining eulogy to the power of
evolution, this captivating book is a must read for anyone with an
interest in design, nature and technology.
