Encyclopedia of 20th-Century Technology by Colin Hempstead , William Worthington
Requirements: PDF Reader, 13.8 MB
Overview: In this encyclopedia on the technology that significantly affected people in industrial societies in the twentieth century, entries fall within six broad areas: food, leisure, homes, health, work, and interrelations. The emphasis is on technologies that influenced people’s lives rather than twentieth-century technological inventions; often technology exists for decades before evolving into something serviceable. Thus, expect to find entries on things like Dishwashers, for which patents were first filed in the mid-nineteenth century but that became devices with widespread use in the mid-twentieth century.
