Recenzii
This text is distinctive for its breadth of coverage. It offers a near encyclopedic quality, tackling a huge and disparate range of technologies (from colonial beer making to the invention of nuclear power) with skill.
This book is valuable in emphasising "ideas" and intellectual history as the key to the history of technology, and in stressing how American culture and society impact technology (rather than vice-versa).
