Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating history of the steam engine, a technological marvel that revolutionized industry and transportation. The author takes readers on a journey through centuries of innovation, tracing the development of this powerful machine from its earliest iterations to its widespread adoption in the 19th century. From the rudimentary designs of Hero of Alexandria to the groundbreaking inventions of James Watt, the book delves into the scientific and practical challenges that engineers faced as they sought to harness the power of steam. It highlights the crucial role of scientific understanding in driving progress and shows how empirical knowledge, combined with theoretical breakthroughs, led to the creation of increasingly efficient and sophisticated steam engines. The book goes beyond a mere chronology of inventions, examining the impact of the steam engine on society. It explores the economic and social transformations brought about by the use of steam power in factories, mines, and transportation. The author also touches upon the emergence of thermodynamics, a new field of science that emerged in the 19th century to explain the relationship between heat and mechanical energy. The book ultimately underscores the profound influence of the steam engine on the course of human history, paving the way for the industrial revolution and shaping the modern world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
