About the book

Gordon's Structures explains the scientific principles that allow buildings, bridges, aircraft and living organisms to remain intact. Using accessible examples and humour, Gordon discusses forces such as tension, compression and bending. The book makes engineering understandable to non-specialists while showing how structural principles operate throughout both nature and technology.
