On a related topic, I have a really cool book from the 1970s which contains beautiful cutaway drawings of high technology from the era (everything from telephones to Advanced Gas-Cooled Reactors). Edit: How Things Work, Volumes I & II published by Paladdin. There's a borrowable copy of Vol II at the IA: https://archive.org/details/howthingsworkuni00vana/page/n595... (can't find if they have Vol I).
