With a minimum of technical detail, this book presents a very excellent blend of history and applied science, as the development of engineering in Western civilization is traced from it origins in Mesopotamian urban society to the twentieth century and the age of automatic control. Comprehensive and extremely detailed, Engineering in History reveals how technology is indeed a creative near-artistic activity that has been essential in "man's progressive self-liberation."
