This book explores the history of mechanical engineering since the
Bronze Age. Focusing on machinery inventions and the development of
mechanical technology, it also discusses the machinery industry and
modern mechanical education. The evolution of machinery is divided
into three stages: Ancient (before the European Renaissance),
Modern (mainly including the two Industrial Revolutions) and
Contemporary (since the Revolution in Physics, especially post
Second World War). The book not only clarifies the development of
mechanical engineering, but also reveals the driving forces behind
it - e.g. the economy, national defense and human scientific
research activities - to highlight the links between technology and
society; mechanical engineering and the natural sciences; and
mechanical engineering and related technological areas. Though
mainly intended as a textbook or supplemental reading for graduate
students, the book also offers a unique resource for researchers
and engineers in mechanical engineering who wish to broaden their
horizons.
