Dust: The Modern World in a Trillion Particles

'Like a detective dusting for fingerprints, Jay Owens masterfully reveals the hidden traces of modernity by following some of its smallest fragments. Dust is a hugely original and engrossing history. It's a book that captures our current age – its diffusion, its wonder, and its terror – as well as tracing its future fall-out, both literal and symbolic. – James Vincent, author of Beyond Measure
