Electrical power is supplied to virtually every home and workplace in our industrialized world. Providing a much-needed comprehensive overview of electrical and electronics history, Dawn of the Electric Age takes an international perspective within a chronological framework. The book explains how our engineering knowledge and its main applications developed in their scientific, economic, and social contexts, and describes how these contexts were profoundly affected by electrical technologies. Though a scholarly study, the book is written in an entertaining style for the general public as well as engineering professionals.
From the Back Cover
A comprehensive and fascinating account of electrical and electronics history
Much of the infrastructure of today's industrialized world arose in the period from the outbreak of World War I to the conclusion of World War II. It was during these years that the capabilities of traditional electrical engineering—generators, power transmission, motors, electric lighting and heating, home appliances, and so on—became ubiquitous. Even more importantly, it was during this time that a new type of electrical engineering—electronics—emerged. Because of its applications in communications (both wire-based and wireless), entertainment (notably radio, the phonograph, and sound movies), industry, science and medicine, and the military, the electronics industry became a major part of the economy.
Dawn of the Electronic Age?explores how this engineering knowledge and its main applications developed in various scientific, economic, and social contexts, and explains how each was profoundly affected by electrical technologies. It takes an international perspective and a narrative approach, unfolding the story chronologically.
Though a scholarly study (with sources of information given in endnotes for engineers and historians of science and technology), the book is intended for the general public.?Ultimately, it tells the story of the development of a new realm of engineering and its widespread applications during the remarkable and tragic period of two world wars and the decades in between.
