| 520 | |a The latest volume in Norton's "History of Science" series is as sweeping in scope as its predecessors (John North's Norton History of Astronomy and Cosmology, LJ 7/94). Cardwell, distinguished historian at the University of Manchester, divides his synthesis into three broad chronological periods: the ancients, the Industrial Revolution, and the modern era. Throughout, he emphasizes the importance to technical development of contemporary thinking about knowledge and progress, pointing out that a true understanding of the history of technology demands some familiarity with the thought of Aristotle, Bacon, Aquinas, et al. This work is not the easiest reading at times, but as a rare (and probably the best) single-volume treatment of an almost overwhelming subject usually covered in multi-volume sets, it deserves a place in all academic and public science collections. | ||
