A love letter to the maker in all of us.
Human is Engineer is not a textbook. It is an invitation — to see the engineer in yourself, whether you hold a hammer, a pen, a spreadsheet, or a child's hand.
Written in warm, poetic prose that reads like a conversation with a wise friend, this book traces the arc of human ingenuity from the first sharpened stone to the algorithms that shape our modern world. Along the way, it reveals a profound truth: engineering is not about what you build. It is about who you become while building.
