Story
America’s self-invented tinkerers are back at it in their metaphorical garages - fiddling with everything from solar-powered cars to space elevators. In Bunch of Amateurs, Jack Hitt visits a number of different garages and has written a fascinating book that looks at America’s current batch of amateurs and their pursuits. Beginning with Ben Franklin’s kite and leading all the way to the current TV hit American Idol, Hitt argues that the nation’s love of self-invented obsessives has always driven the country to rediscover the true heart of the American dream.

The definitive history of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the Pentagon agency that has quietly shaped war and technology for nearly 60 years. Founded in 1958 in response to the launch of Sputnik, the agency's original mission was to create "the unimagined weapons of the future".

Story
Wie ein Boom an Innovationen die größten Probleme der Menschheit lösen und unser Leben verändern wird. Autos, die kein Benzin mehr verbrennen, an keine Steckdose mehr müssen und allein über die Straßen steuern. Getreide, das mit wenigen Tropfen Wasser wächst und ganze Dörfer ernährt. Krankheiten, die von allein Alarm schlagen und sich selbst ausrotten - zu schön, um wahr zu sein? Im Gegenteil: Zum ersten Mal könnten diese Dinge Wirklichkeit werden. Christoph Keese hat mit deutschen Erfindern, Gründerinnen, Investoren und Innovatorinnen gesprochen, in ihre Werkstätten und Labors geschaut.
