The American West - where such landmarks as the Golden Gate Bridge
rival wild landscapes in popularity and iconic significance - has
been viewed as a frontier of technological innovation. Where Minds
and Matters Meet calls attention to the convergence of Western
history and the history of technology, showing that the region's
politics and culture have shaped seemingly placeless, global
technological practices and institutions. Drawing on political and
social history as well as art history, the book's essays take the
cultural measure of the region's great technological milestones,
including San Diego's Panama-California Exposition, the building of
the Hetch Hetchy Dam in the Sierras, and traffic planning in Los
Angeles. Contributors: Amy Bix, Louise Nelson Dyble, Patrick
McCray, Linda Nash, Peter Neushul, Matthew W Roth, Bruce Sinclair,
L Chase Smith, Carlene Stephens, Aristotle Tympas, Jason Weems,
Peter Westwick, and, Stephanie Young.
