About This Item
Hardback. New. As the inventor of the separate-condenser steam engine, James Watt has become synonymous with the spirit of invention. This book shows he owed his astonishing rise as much to espionage and political manoeuvring as to his own creativity and determination. It is a tale of international espionage, of bankruptcy and brain drains, and lobbying.
