Reviews

"The history of technology at its very best. It is also a volume which has a great deal to interest the business historian . . . A superb study replete with new insights and eqully valuable in its parts as in their sum . . . This is an exciting book which deserves the highest praise."—Business History

"David Hounshell's history of the evolution of American production methods has few rivals: in execution of the theme it has none . . . Both the armchair historian and the specialist in the history of technology will find this a highly readable and most informative work."—Science
