Paperback. Condition: New. In his classic book, J. G. Landels describes the technological advances of the Greeks and Romans with erudition and enthusiasm. He provides an important introduction to engineering, writing about power and energy sources, water engineering, cranes, and transportation devises. From aqueducts to catapults, he attempts to envision machines as they may have worked in the ancient world. He then traces the path of knowledge taken by early thinkers--including Plato, Pliny, and Archimedes--in developing early theories of engineering and physics.

Condition: Sehr gut. 2. Ausgabe / 2nd Edition. Zahlreiche Abb. / Numerous Figs., 238 S. / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) - Sehr guter Zustand, leicht bestoßen / Very good condition, slightly scuffed - Main sources for engineering in Roman antiquity: Hero of Alexandria, Vitruvius, Pliny, Frontinus. - Power and energy sources -- The sources of power available in classical antiquity were severely limited by comparison with those of the present day. Virtually all work was done by man-power or animal power, and the kind of constraint which this imposed may be seen from a simple illustration. One gallon of petrol may seem very expensive nowadays, but if used in an ordinary engine of average efficiency it will do the equivalent work of about 90 men, or of nine horses of the smallish size used in the ancient world, for one hour. Water power was used for pumping and industrial purposes, but probably not much before the first century B.c. The theoretical possibilities of steam power, hot air expansion and windmills were known, but apparently never exploited except on a very small scale, and not in useful or practical applications.
