About This Item
Reading, Massachusetts, U.S.A.: Addison-Wesley Publishing Company. With MIT as a point of reference the author traces the emergence of the profession from its mud-on-the-boots days preoccupied with canals & roads to its present absorption with cyber-space & micromachines. He also shows the evolution in how engineers are trained, from the apprentice working alongside the older man, to "build & test", to the postwar emergence of engineering science & its focus on developing general principles about the natural behavior of artifacts. New/New dust jacket; No names or markings, Bibliography, Index. 203 Crisp, Clean & Solid pp. Price Unclipped & VERY GIFT QUALITY . New. Hardcover. 1993.
