Synopsis:
Technology is too big to understand all at once, says Lienhard (mechanical
engineering and history, U. of Houston), so his 17 essays merely sample some
of the bits he has encountered in his half-century as an engineer. They are
based loosely on the first year's broadcast of his daily public radio
series of the same name.
