Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores how the advent of engines to replace animal and human manual labor resulted in a new social order. The author points out that power from fuel, water, and the wind is not a new concept but rather that the industrial revolution began when engineers began to systematically study and understand the energy forces found in nature and how to harness them. In this book, you'll find accessible explanations of thermodynamics principles and the engineering design process from the perspective of someone who has worked on the most cutting-edge power systems. The book then gives a detailed history of how power machinery came into existence, examining the ideas that went into creating the machines, the mechanisms used to implement the ideas, and estimations of the efficiency of each. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
