Visions of Technology: A Century of Vital Debate about Machines Systems and the Human World Paperback - 2000
by Richard Rhodes
The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "The Making of the Atomic Bomb" presents a compelling overview of the effects of technology on modern life in a one-of-a-kind collection. Illustrations throughout.
First line
In his newspapers of January 1, 1900, the American found no such word as radio, for that was yet twenty years from coming; nor "movie," for that too was still mainly of the future; nor chauffeur, for the automobile was only just emerging and had been called "horseless carriage" when treated seriously, but rather more frequently, "devil-wagon, " and the driver, the "engineer."
