Roma Agrawal is a British structural engineer, author and broadcaster. She is one of the UK's most prominent advocates for engineering and science education, and she worked on some of London's most iconic structures, including The Shard, Western Europe's tallest building. She was awarded an MBE for services to engineering.
Nuts and Bolts explores the hidden engineering behind everyday objects, from bridges and buildings to smartphones and sewage systems. Agrawal takes readers inside the world of engineering to show how the everyday things we take for granted are marvels of design and problem-solving. The book makes engineering accessible, fascinating and fun for audiences who might never have considered what holds the modern world together.
Available as both a book and an audiobook, Nuts and Bolts offers illuminating listening and reading for anyone curious about how things work and the ingenious engineering that makes modern life possible.
