Technical Fixes, Technological Solutions.We have long recognized technology as a driving force behind much historical and cultural change. The invention of the printing press initiated the Reformation. The development of the compass ushered in the Age of Exploration and the discovery of the New World. The cotton gin created the conditions that led to the Civil War. Now, in 'Beyond Engineering', science writer Robert Pool turns the question around to examine how society shapes technology. Drawing on such disparate fields as history, economics, risk analysis, management science, sociology and psychology, Pool illuminates the complex, often fascinating interplay between machines and society, in a book that will revolutionize how we think about technology.Sloan technology series.TechnologyTechnological innovationsNuclear energyTechnology.Technological innovations.Nuclear energy.600Pool Robert1955-288454MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777620003321Beyond engineering3866291UNINA01233nam0 22002891i 450 UON0041300620231205104748.77120121109d1957 |0itac50 bagerDE|||| |||||Afrikanische TrauerspieleCleopatra ; SophonisbeDaniel Casper von Lohensteinherausgegeben von Klaus Günther JustStuttgartAnton Hiersemann1957413 p.23 cm.001UON004116792001 Bibliothek des Literarischen Vereins in Stuttgart294Letteratura tedescaSec. 17.UONC063121FIDEWiesbadenUONL003153830.5Letteratura tedesca. 1625-1750 (periodo barocco).21DANIEL CASPER VON LOHENSTEINUONV211107645503JUSTKlaus GuntherUONV021401HiersemannUONV249255650ITSOL20251003RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00413006SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI TED 20 I LOH 3 SI ST 3516 5 3 BuonoAfrikanische Trauerspiele1342835UNIOR
