In How We Got to Now - Glass, the video examines ways in which the world was changed by Gutenberg's printing press and the invention of glass. It could be said that lenses would not have been invented without the existence of the printing press. But it also could be said that the Scientific Revolution would not have occurred without the invention of lenses. Please answer the following questions in paragraph format (paragraphs that have at least 5 sentences):

1) How did the concept of the 'slow hunch' help Gutenberg develop the printing press?

2) What was the chain reaction that led from the invention of Gutenberg's printing press to lenses?

3) How did innovation result from experimenting with glass, as an already existing material?

4) How has human ingenuity with glass changed the world?

P.S, I don't have the textbook "How We Got to Now: Six Innovations That Made the World by Steven Johnson".
