Needham's work was significant because it brought attention to the superiority of Chinese science and technology to those of European, prior to the 16th century and examined the multi-cultural roots of science. One of the most significant questions Needham raises is why Chinese science stopped innovating after the 16th century. An seminal work in the history of China, science, and the development of the world.
