It reflects and refracts light through your windows; it encircles a glowing filament above you; it’s in a mirror hanging on the wall; it lies shattered in a dented corner of an iPhone—you’re drinking water out of a pint glass. Taking up a most common object, rarely considered because assumed to be transparent, John Garrison draws evocative connections between historical depictions of glass and emerging visions that see it as holding a unique promise for new forms of interaction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGrounded in everyday examples, this book offers a series of surprising insights into how we increasingly find ourselves living in a world made of glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eObject Lessons\u003c\/i\u003e is published in partnership with an essay series in \u003ci\u003eThe Atlantic.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47430805127404,"sku":"9781628924244","price":21.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781628924244.jpg?v=1774558546","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/glass-by-professor-john-s-garrison-9781628924244","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
