An entertaining book that lives from the fresh and unusual perspective of the narrator. A few more illustrative sketches to go along with the technical descriptions would have been fine, but for me it was understandable. Especially because I took some electrical engineering courses at university this was a nice reminder what human ingenuity can achieve.

The biography of William Kamkwamba who built a windmill in his village in Malawi in order to bring electricity, and eventually running water, to his family and neighbors. This is an amazing story about Kamkwamba's life and his scientific inquires and advancements despite the hardships and obstacles that got in his way of a traditional education.
