18. Many of the so-called “wonders of modern Science ”
are really wonders of modern Engineering. For example,
it involves engineering to:
protect the world’s natural resources and enable
them to be used more efficiently
invent new types of diagnostic medical scanners
design and build safer, faster, quieter, more fuel-
efficient aircraft
create smaller smartphones that are easier to use
synthesise biologically compatible materials for
artificial limbs
