Download or read book Industrial Biography written by Samuel Samuel Smiles and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Author offers the following book as a continuation, in a more generally accessible form, of the Series of Memoirs of Industrial Men introduced in his Lives of the Engineers. While preparing that work he frequently came across the tracks of celebrated inventors, mechanics, and iron-workers-the founders, in a great measure, of the modern industry of Britain-whose labours seemed to him well worthy of being traced out and placed on record, and the more so as their lives presented many points of curious and original interest. Having been encouraged to prosecute the subject by offers of assistance from some of the most eminent living mechanical engineers, he is now enabled to present the following further series of memoirs to the public. Without exaggerating the importance of this class of biography, it may at least be averred that it has not yet received its due share of attention. While commemorating the labours and honouring the names of those who have striven to elevate man above the material and mechanical, the labours of the important industrial class to whom society owes so much of its comfort and well-being are also entitled to consideration. Without derogating from the biographic claims of those who minister to intellect and taste, those who minister to utility need not be overlooked. When a Frenchman was praising to Sir John Sinclair the artist who invented ruffles, the Baronet shrewdly remarked that some merit was also due to the man who added the shirt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Petroski’s previous bestsellers have delighted readers with intriguing stories about the engineering marvels around us, from the lowly pencil to the soaring suspension bridge. In this book, Petroski delves deeper into the mystery of invention, to explore what everyday artifacts and sophisticated networks can reveal about the way engineers solve problems. Engineering entails more than knowing the way things work. What do economics and ecology, aesthetics and ethics, have to do with the shape of a paper clip, the tab of a beverage can, the cabin design of a turbojet, or the course of a river? How do the idiosyncrasies of individual engineers, companies, and communities leave their mark on projects from Velcro® to fax machines to waterworks? Invention by Design offers an insider’s look at these political and cultural dimensions of design and development, production and construction. Readers unfamiliar with engineering will find Petroski’s enthusiasm contagious, whether the topic is the genesis of the Ziploc® baggie or the averted collapse of Manhattan’s sleekest skyscraper. And those who inhabit the world of engineering will discover insights to challenge their customary perspective, whether their work involves failure analysis, systems design, or public relations. Written with the flair that readers have come to expect from his books, Invention by Design reaffirms Petroski as the master explicator of the principles and processes that turn thoughts into the many things that define our made world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men of Science and Industry: A Guide to the Biographies of Scientists, Engineers, Inventors and Physicians, in the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh Although the material relating to the lives of scientists and engineers is considerable in quantity, it is widely scattered and difficult of access. This condition was recognized many years ago by the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education, which appointed a committee of investigation, but as yet no feasible plan for a uniform editing of the material has been found. In the mean time, this Library has compiled a card index to the biographies in its own collection, and this bibliography is now printed in the hope that it may prove useful to others, even though it is confined to the resources of one library. The list is, in general, limited to men whose work is con cerned with the subjects represented in the classes Science and Useful Arts, of the Decimal Classification. On this basis some men prominent in business, engineering and invention are in cluded whose rank as scientific workers may be questioned. The limitation to one collection, and that not one attempting completeness, will account for the absence of certain nameswhich might, reasonably be expected to appear. The brief characterizations attached to the names have sometimes given difficulty because of the varied aspects of some men's work, but the endeavor has been to choose the field in which each has made his most important contributions to science. A man's birthplace has been considered as determining his nationality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book George and Robert Stephenson written by Anthony Burton and published by Pen and Sword Transport. This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a new biography of two great British engineering pioneers, who did much to develop the world we now live in. George and Robert Stephenson, were at the forefront of early railways and were at the cutting edge of modern engineering history. Industrial historian Anthony Burton looks into these two giants of the late Georgian and early Victorian age, who were responsible for the development of much of the early railway map in both Britain and other parts of the world. The work examines the lives of the two men and their ability to overcome some of the most pressing engineering problems of their time. This is a new work, with newly researched material published here for the first time, which take a fresh look at both pioneering engineers and their achievements.
