';Ahouse of wonders itself. . .
.Wonderlandinspires grins and well-what-d'ya-knows' The New York Times Book Review
From theNew York Timesbestselling author ofHow We Got to Nowand Farsighted, a look atthe world-changing innovations we made while keeping ourselves entertained.
This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes along-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused.
Johnson's storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows.
In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements.
You'll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.
