This is the book from the radio series! I am so addicted to this programme that I wake up at 5.00am in order to listen in!!! Tomorrow is the last episode (100) which will be a solar powered lamp made in China 2010. the thing I love about this series is the fact that Neil MacGregor has chosen mostly things that were commonplace of the time and that would have been used by everyone or have had at least importance to most. From an ancient Mummy case (240bc) to the Solar lamp each object provides an insight into our human evolution. Fascinating!
