This book makes an innovative contribution to current debates on the origins of the 'Great Divergence' between China and Europe and the ' Little Divergence' within Europe by analysing the relationship between the evolution of technical knowledge and religious contexts. It deals with the question to what extent disparities in the evolution of technical knowledge can be explained by differences in religious environment. It takes a comparative look at the relation between technology and religion in China and Europe between c.700 and 1800 from four angles: visions on the uses of nature, the formation of human capital , the circulation of technical knowledge and technical innovation. 410 0$aKnowledge Infrastructure and Knowledge Economy$v2. 606 $aCross-cultural studies$zChina 606 $aCross-cultural studies$zEurope 606 $aTechnological innovations$zChina$xHistory 606 $aTechnological innovations$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aTechnology$xReligious aspects$zChina$xHistory 606 $aTechnology$xReligious aspects$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aTechnology$xSocial aspects$zChina$xHistory 606 $aTechnology$xSocial aspects$zEurope$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCross-cultural studies 615 0$aCross-cultural studies 615 0$aTechnological innovations$xHistory. 615 0$aTechnological innovations$xHistory. 615 0$aTechnology$xReligious aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aTechnology$xReligious aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aTechnology$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aTechnology$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 676 $a303.48/30951 676 $a303.4830951 700 $aDavids$b C.
