Lightning Nerds and Gearheads
Conversations about Engineers and Their Workplaces
by
Bob Cowin
Rich in insight and gorgeously written, Lightning Nerds and Gearheads is a layperson’s glimpse into engineering. Through author Bob Cowin’s six conversations with people in the profession—including a marine engineer, an electrical engineer, and everything in between—Lightning Nerds and Gearheads touches on what makes engineers tick, what draws them into the profession, and perhaps most fascinating of all, how they facilitate the systems and processes which make our modern world possible. Incisive, thought-provoking, and written in captivating prose, this book is sure to make an original addition to the bookshelves of anyone interested in the subject of engineering—and, as it goes to show, we all should be.
Bob Cowin, a former community college administrator, writes about the activities and experiences of people he encounters in his everyday life.
