Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his introduction, author Jay Pridmore relates how the Museum was founded by Chicago businessman and philanthropist Julius Rosenwald and how it was installed in the imposing Palace of Fine Arts, an architectural monument from the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893. Then, he leads an entertaining and informative tour of the Museum, featuring the incredibly diverse exhibits in five "zones" - Energy, Transportation, Space and Defense, The Human Body and Communications. Discussed and illustrated are such dramatic "icons" of the Museum's early years as the Coal Mine, a complete working mine operation installed in the basement, and the U-505, a German submarine captured during World War II. Among the many other highlights are a full-size Boeing 727 airliner; the Apollo 8 spacecraft, which circled the Moon in 1968; an early display on the prenatal development of a human baby; and the nation's first permanent exhibit on AIDS.

Download or read book Men of Science and Industry written by Pittsburgh Carnegie Library and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men of Science and Industry: A Guide to the Biographies of Scientists, Engineers, Inventors and Physicians, in the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh Although the material relating to the lives of scientists and engineers is considerable in quantity, it is widely scattered and difficult of access. This condition was recognized many years ago by the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education, which appointed a committee of investigation, but as yet no feasible plan for a uniform editing of the material has been found. In the mean time, this Library has compiled a card index to the biographies in its own collection, and this bibliography is now printed in the hope that it may prove useful to others, even though it is confined to the resources of one library. The list is, in general, limited to men whose work is con cerned with the subjects represented in the classes Science and Useful Arts, of the Decimal Classification. On this basis some men prominent in business, engineering and invention are in cluded whose rank as scientific workers may be questioned. The limitation to one collection, and that not one attempting completeness, will account for the absence of certain nameswhich might, reasonably be expected to appear. The brief characterizations attached to the names have sometimes given difficulty because of the varied aspects of some men's work, but the endeavor has been to choose the field in which each has made his most important contributions to science. A man's birthplace has been considered as determining his nationality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: The imperative of happiness dictates the conduct and direction of our lives. There is no escape from the tyranny of positivity. But is happiness the supreme good that all of us should pursue? So says a new breed of so-called happiness experts, with positive psychologists, happiness economists and self-development gurus at the forefront. With the support of influential institutions and multinational corporations, these self-proclaimed experts now tell us what governmental policies to apply, what educational interventions to make and what changes we must undertake in order to lead more successful, more meaningful and healthier lives. With a healthy scepticism, this book documents the powerful social impact of the science and industry of happiness, arguing that the neoliberal alliance between psychologists, economists and self-development gurus has given rise to a new and oppressive form of government and control in which happiness has been woven into the very fabric of power.
Download or read book Aesthetics Industry Science written by M. Norton Wise and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 5, 1845, the Prussian cultural minister received a request by a group of six young men to form a new Physical Society in Berlin. In fields from thermodynamics, mechanics, and electromagnetism to animal electricity, ophthalmology, and psychophysics, members of this small but growing group—which soon included Emil Du Bois-Reymond, Ernst Brücke, Werner Siemens, and Hermann von Helmholtz—established leading positions in what only thirty years later had become a new landscape of natural science. How was this possible? How could a bunch of twenty-somethings succeed in seizing the future? In Aesthetics, Industry, and Science M. Norton Wise answers these questions not simply from a technical perspective of theories and practices but with a broader cultural view of what was happening in Berlin at the time. He emphasizes in particular how rapid industrial development, military modernization, and the neoclassical aesthetics of contemporary art informed the ways in which these young men thought. Wise argues that aesthetic sensibility and material aspiration in this period were intimately linked, and he uses these two themes for a final reappraisal of Helmholtz’s early work. Anyone interested in modern German cultural history, or the history of nineteenth-century German science, will be drawn to this landmark book.
