Infrastructure: A Field Guide to the Industrial Landscape Brian Hayes http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393329593/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp... (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393329593/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=0393059979&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=01V6WSCHFX2V6N5CR1XX) This book is a "how it works" guide to the infrastructure of modernity: the power grid, mining, steel production, etc. Great photographs & readable text. I read it cover to cover and was enriched thereby.
