ESSAY ON: Petroski/Invention by Design

Number of Pages 7

This research paper: A 7 book review of Henry Petroski's text Invention by Design. This Duke professor of civil engineering, unlike many authors who write about technology, in his text Invention by Design, does not take his readers into the often obscure depths of technical definitions and convoluted descriptions that are best understood by fellow geeks and engineering major. Petroski, thankfully, takes a different approach that is quite accessible to the non-technological oriented reader who wishes to understand the modern technological world just a little bit better than they do. The writer discusses the topics of each chapter and these topic express principle themes of the book. No other sources cited.
