Dive into the new century on a wave of invention, as the Wright brothers take to the skies and a radio signal crosses the Atlantic. It's also the end of the Victorian era and the beginning of the end of China's Manchu dynasty. Talking pictures take off and the first skyscraper rises up. Before half the century has gone, two world wars have occurred. Postwar events include the space race, revolutions in Cuba, China and Iran, and the end of apartheid in South Africa. And the World Wide Web is invented, for information sharing by everyone, everywhere.
