With informative, step-by-step instructions and detailed illustrations, you'll learn how: Smartphone screens are assembled in impeccably clean rooms with .5 micron dust filters to ensure perfection. The polyethylene fiber that makes up bulletproof vests was originally created for use in tires. A Czech scientist perfected the soft contact lens in his kitchen, producing 5,500 pairs with assistance from his wife. Transparent solar cells are being developed to coat windows, which will likely revolutionize solar energy in skyscrapers and other buildings. And much, much more ..., Perfect for curious minds, How Things Are Made provides an entertaining, illustrated exploration of manufacturing tricks, ingredients, and materials for common and extraordinary items.

    I got the Blu ray of STRANDED, a sci Fi movie starring Christian slater and I got it at a really great price from estocks_usa. I'm a bit surprised on how fast they got it to me because of the 4th of July weekend window I'd ordered it in, but it got to me earlier than listed and well wrapped up. It got to me in brand new looking shape. Good seller, fast shipping and they sent me what they advertised.

    Far better condition than expected, in comparison with the seller's description -- jewel case shows no cracks or major scratches, and CD plays perfectly. Some significant delivery issues (not the seller's fault!); but the seller was VERY responsive, and even sent a refund without my asking! When the package mysteriously turned up, the seller patiently walked me through multiple repayment options until I was able to successfully repay them. Wonderful #1 customer service people -- thanks again!
