Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the development of our understanding of weights and measures from the earliest attempts at quantification to the development and adoption of the Metric System. The author, an expert in the field, first discusses the evolution of weights and measures in ancient civilizations and how they varied greatly among different cultures and at different times. The discussion then turns to the development of more universal systems such as the Metric System. The history of its conception and implementation is detailed, as are the many challenges it has faced over the years, especially the resistance to replacing the systems in use by different countries for centuries. Despite the obstacles it has faced, the Metric System has become the most widely used system of weights and measures in the world, and its adoption has greatly simplified international trade and communication. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781332174898_0
