Your Life Is Manufactured - How the World is Made and How We Can Do it Better

Unless you are floating naked through space, you are right now in direct contact with multiple manufactured products, be it furniture, technology, clothing, and or even food. The processes by which these things appear in our lives are virtually invisible. How often do we stop to think: Where do the things we buy actually come from? From mega-factory floors, engineering laboratories and seaports to distribution hubs, supermarkets and our own homes,Your Life is Manufactured reveals the seismic impact manufacturing has had on our lives and the natural world - and explores how it could offer us a path to a truly sustainable, more equitable future.
