Ways of thinking, ways of seeing : mathematical and other modelling in engineering and technology

This fascinating book examines some of the characteristics of technological/engineering models that are likely to be unfamiliar to those who are interested primarily in the history and philosophy of science and mathematics, and which differentiate technological models from scientific and mathematica...
