Abstract: This major new book contains contributions by many of the leading historians of technology.

Their essays include broad comparative frameworks between Europe and Asia, and Europe and America, and treat the specific experiences of Britain, France, Holland and Scandinavia. Themes addressed include cultures of invention and the learning economy, technological inertia and path dependence, patents and product
