Articles liés à What the Romans Did for Us
Synopsis
From frescoes to fast food, bridges to bikinis, the Romans brought us a variety of innovations that changed the landscape of Britain and the lifestyle of its inhabitants for ever. The Romans were mass-producers, capitalists and bureaucrats who during their 400-year stay in Britain built dozens of towns and miles of roads, leaving a fascinating and complex legacy that forms the basis of much of our technology today.
Based on the BBC series of the same name, presented by Adam Hart-Davis, What The Romans Did For Us investigates the innovations that Romans brought to our shores and assesses their considerable impact on our lives. It features demonstrations and reconstructions of extraordinary Roman devices, and provides an alternative, dynamic history of the people that transformed Britain.
'The irrespressible Adam Hart-Davis.... has the energy and ingenuity to match the Romans...' Radio Times
'What makes any programme to do with Adam Hart-Davis fascinating is that he doesn't just tell you things... he actually gets his feet wet.' The Times

Etat : Muy bueno. : Descubre las fascinantes innovaciones que los romanos aportaron a Gran Bretaña y cómo transformaron la vida de sus habitantes. Desde frescos hasta comida rápida, desde puentes hasta bikinis, los romanos fueron productores en masa, capitalistas y burócratas que, durante sus 400 años en Gran Bretaña, construyeron docenas de ciudades y kilómetros de carreteras, dejando un legado fascinante y complejo que forma la base de gran parte de nuestra tecnología actual. Basado en la serie de la BBC del mismo nombre, presentada por Adam Hart-Davis, este libro investiga las innovaciones que los romanos trajeron a nuestras costas y evalúa su considerable impacto en nuestras vidas. Incluye demostraciones y reconstrucciones de extraordinarios dispositivos romanos, y proporciona una historia alternativa y dinámica de las personas que transformaron Gran Bretaña.
