Using examples from the history of machines, as well as case studies from wireless, radio and chaos theory, the author challenges the genius model of invention. Network analysis concepts are presented to demonstrate the societal nature of invention in areas such as steam power, internal combustion engines, early aviation, air conditioning and more. Using modern measures of network theory, the author demonstrates that the social networks of invention from the 19th and early 20th centuries have similar characteristics to modern 21st C networks such as the World Wide Web. The book provides evidence that exponential growth in technical innovation is linked to the growth of historical innovation networks. 000696215 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 18, 2013). 000696215 650_0 $$aTechnological innovations$$xHistory. 000696215 650_0 $$aTechnological innovations$$xSocial aspects. 000696215 650_0 $$aSocial networks. 000696215 650_0 $$aScience$$xHistory. 000696215 830_0 $$aHistory of mechanism and machine science ;$$v22. 000696215 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696215 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7528-2$$zOnline Access 000696215 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696215$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696215 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696215 980__ $$aBIB 000696215 982__ $$aEbook 000696215 983__ $$aOnline 000696215 994__ $$a92$$bISE
