Book Description
This Third Edition is the first English-language edition of the award-winning Meilensteine der Rechentechnik; illustrated in full color throughout in two volumes. The Third Edition is devoted to both analog and digital computing devices, as well as the world's most magnificient historical automatons and select scientific instruments (employed in astronomy, surveying, time measurement, etc.). It also features detailed instructions for analog and digital mechanical calculating machines and instruments, and is the only such historical book with comprehensive technical glossaries of terms not found in print or in online dictionaries. The book also includes a very extensive bibliography based on the literature of numerous countries around the world. Meticulously researched, the author conducted a worldwide survey of science, technology and art museums with their main holdings of analog and digital calculating and computing machines and devices, historical automatons and selected scientific instruments in order to describe a broad range of masterful technical achievements. Also covering the history of mathematics and computer science, this work documents the cultural heritage of technology as well.

Book Description
David Hilbert (1862-1943) was the most influential mathematician of the early twentieth century and, together with Henri Poincaré, the last mathematical universalist. His main known areas of research and influence were in pure mathematics (algebra, number theory, geometry, integral equations and analysis, logic and foundations), but he was also known to have some interest in physical topics. The latter, however, was traditionally conceived as comprising only sporadic incursions into a scientific domain which was essentially foreign to his mainstream of activity and in which he only made scattered, if important, contributions. Based on an extensive use of mainly unpublished archival sources, the present book presents a totally fresh and comprehensive picture of Hilbert’s intense, original, well-informed, and highly influential involvement with physics, that spanned his entire career and that constituted a truly main focus of interest in his scientific horizon. His program for axiomatizing physical theories provides the connecting link with his research in more purely mathematical fields, especially geometry, and a unifying point of view from which to understand his physical activities in general. In particular, the now famous dialogue and interaction between Hilbert and Einstein, leading to the formulation in 1915 of the generally covariant field-equations of gravitation, is adequately explored here within the natural context of Hilbert’s overall scientific world-view. This book will be of interest to historians of physics and of mathematics, to historically-minded physicists and mathematicians, and to philosophers of science.

Book Description
Recipient McKean Cup & Cugnot Awards. An automotive business & technical history addressing innovative products, construction details, marketing & manufacture, organization & financing. Marmon of Indianapolis revolutionized grain milling, electrified major cities, was innovator in engineering & styling the automobile for three decades. Dominance in racing & victory in first INDY 500 made Marmon Speedsteers the 'Corvettes' of the 1920s. Marmon-Herrington built All-Wheel-Drive trucks during the next three decades, including AWD Ford cars & trucks. Marmon Group today is among world's most diverse firms. The book contrasts sharply with the perceived state of early century technology & product reliability-durability. "Industrial titles are increasingly more important in research libraries. I am most impressed with THE MARMON HERITAGE as a product. Well done!"--R.E. Chapin, Director Libraries, Michigan State University. "One of the most unusual books published in recent years, it is at once history, technical manual, & panea of praise for the products. It will have great appeal to engineers, students of technology or advertising"--Prof. Ralph D. Gray, Indiana-Purdue Universities, Indianapolis. "I woul d like to express my sincere admiration for the accomplishment that is THE MARMON HERITAGE, a magnificent exercise in scholarship & a monumental contribution to the literature."--Griffith Borgeson, European Editor, AUTOMOTIVE QUARTERLY.
