What people are saying - Write a reviewReview: Technology in World Civilization: A Thousand-Year HistoryUser Review - GoodreadsThis book is a failed attempt at pluralism in the history of technology. Despite its best efforts it remains Eurocentric and betrays the author's deep-seated gender bias. Very out-dated thinking! Related books
