Now in its second edition, this bestselling textbook may be the single most influential study of the historical relationship between science and technology ever published. Tracing this relationship from the dawn of civilization through the twentieth century, James E. McClellan III and Harold Dorn argue that technology as "applied science" emerged relatively recently, as industry and governments began funding scientific research that would lead directly to new or improved technologies. McClellan and Dorn identify two great scientific traditions: the useful sciences, patronized by the state from the dawn of civilization, and scientific theorizing, initiated by the ancient Greeks. They find that scientific traditions took root in China, India, and Central and South America, as well as in a series of Near Eastern empires, during late antiquity and the Middle Ages. From this comparative perspective, the authors explore the emergence of Europe and the United States as a scientific and technological power. The new edition reorganizes its treatment of Greek science and significantly expands its coverage of industrial civilization and contemporary science and technology with new and revised chapters devoted to applied science, the sociology and economics of science, globalization, and the technological systems that underpin everyday life.

一直不明白,一本評分那麼高的科技史,為什麼從頭到尾隻字未提“布魯諾”此人。。。據傳統觀念,人傢可是為瞭科學被活活燒死的,就算是據現代觀念,覺得事情並不是那麼簡單,但他也沒有對誰造成實質的攻擊和傷害,隻是喜歡爭論罷瞭,至於說喜歡罵人?可能他真的自視甚高,或者...
評分對科學和技術做比較寬泛的解讀 尤其是技術史 是從石器時代開始記敘的 古希臘時代著墨很多 500頁的書 我看到280頁左右纔看到哥白尼的名字 將近300頁纔看到伽利略的名字 而伽利略一般被認為是現代科學之父 到四百多頁纔講到20世紀 對現代的科學技術著墨很少 本文的中心觀...
評分本書是科學技術通史,作者敘述時就十分重視科學和技術的區分及相互影響,時時不忘提醒讀者,這隻是技術,不是科學,沒有科學痕跡等等。甚至是影響深遠的工業革命,作者的態度是工業革命既不是科學引發,也沒有對科學發展造成影響,兩者幾乎絕緣。 閱讀本書會令人...
