From the dj: Japan's Bullet Train, the Dutch Delta Project, and the Aswan Dam are three of the thirteen adventures in engineering that Joseph Gies has singled out as true 'Wonders of the Modern World.' He tells how men struggled against inrushes of scalding water and seething rock to drive the Simplon Tunnel, longest in the world, through the Alpine massif at Mount Leone; how architects were hard put to keep pace with workmen on the Empire State - a building which jumped fourteen stories in one ten-day period - the fastest skyscraper job of all time as well as the biggest; how without any experience or precedent to guide them engineers dug and built a fantastic underground complex in Colorado capable of withstanding a nuclear blast. . more information

From the publisher: We are all aware of the great achievements of the Greeks and Romans in art, culture, philosophy, and regrettably, war, but not so many of us know that they were also considerable engineers. Within the limitations of power available to them they made many remarkable machines, which were not bettered until the Industrial Revolution. .~ In this fascinating study Dr. Landels show how these machines were developed and made. He draws together evidence from archaeological discoveries and from literary sources, and he uses his own experience of engineering to adduce certain arguments from the theory of physics and mechanics. . more information

The engineering and scientific wonders of the craftsman, the master builder, and the nuclear physicist are seen in an original and dramatic new light which moves from accounts of single structures to sketches of history-making sequences associated with such projects as light-house building, tunnel construction, bridge building and transocean telegraphic communication.' . more information

From the introduction: Encouraged by the success of the book 'Principles of Naval Architecture' published in 1939 by The Society, Mr. J. W. Powell suggested that the Society proceed with a companion book on the subject of marine engineering. The officers of the Society felt that a comprehensive treatise on this subject, reflecting the important technical progress of the last decade, would be of professional interest to the membership and therefore a worthy employment of the funds available to the Society for such purposes." From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) is a professional society that provides a forum for the advancement of the engineering profession as applied to the marine field. The society particularly names the naval architecture and marine engineering specialties, but includes all types of engineers amongst its members and is dedicated to advancing the art, science and practice of naval architecture, shipbuilding and marine engineering. Originally founded in 1893 as a United States engineering society, SNAME now has members in almost every seafaring nation and has various international chapters. The society is headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey and has approximately 8,000 members." B5-7; Ex-Library . more information
