SynopsisInformation wheels have been used since the 14th century to measure, record, predict and calculate everything from time and space to military history and recipes. This book offers an in-depth look at these unique artefacts, from Captain Marvel phonetic decoders to astronomical planispheres. Reinventing the Wheel demonstrates the range and utility of these ingenious tools, a relevant model for modern interactive design.
