Book excerpt: In a remarkable way the course of New Zealand's technological development over the next 80 years was spelled out in the first volume of the NZ Journal of Science & Technology published in 1918. The era ended with the advent of the Think Big projects. The authors of the articles were drawn from a new breed of technologists with formal training in science and engineering and a belief in systematic research and development. Three of them, all engineers, are noteworthy as trailblazers who established technologists as central figures in New Zealand's economic development.
