Review: REVIEW OF PREVIOUS EDITIONS

'Marcus and Segal have produced the first comprehensive textbook on the history of American technology. The treatment, which covers the period from the early seventeenth century through the very recent past, may be characterized as one embedding technology within a matrix of social, political, economic, and cultural history. ... Reflecting the authors' mastery of recent scholarship, the book deserves a place in all academic and public libraries as well as consideration for college class use.' - Choice; recognized as a Choice Outstanding Academic Book.
