Science and Technology in World History pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
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.

不要将思维僵化在流行观点中。事实上流行观点不过是诸种解释中的一种而已,其实这也不是问题。问题在于,流行观点往往是通过简单化、教条化,然后再大力宣传而成的。而实际的世界往往丰富的多、甚至有趣的多。本书描述的科学与技术之间的关系就给我们提供了一个活生生的例子...
评分The English “timber famine” may also serve as an instructive case study of ecological and economic tensions that propelled change in eighteenth-century England. The British Isles were never heavily endowed with forest, and with the advent of Neolithic far...
评分对科学和技术做比较宽泛的解读 尤其是技术史 是从石器时代开始记叙的 古希腊时代着墨很多 500页的书 我看到280页左右才看到哥白尼的名字 将近300页才看到伽利略的名字 而伽利略一般被认为是现代科学之父 到四百多页才讲到20世纪 对现代的科学技术着墨很少 本文的中心观...
评分 评分有很长一段时间我不买书了,吝啬之外,也是因为没了买书的冲动。但是这一本书有点唤回我原先的感觉,不过最后我还是没买,呵呵。 我猜想作者们受了汤因比不小的影响,或者说,他们从另一个角重新诠释了汤因比的思想。贯穿全书的一种看法就是: 人类的每一点进步都是由于受到...
