  First published in 1969.The historical civilization of China is, with the Indian and European-Semitic, one of the three greatest in the world, yet only relatively recently has any enquiry been begun into its achievements in science and technology. Between the first and fifteenth centuries the Chinese were generally far in advance of Europe and it was not until the scientific revolution of the Renaissance that Europe drew ahead. Throughout those f…

  This unique book ranges across the physical, biological and social sciences in the development of its primary theme, that there are nine major 'integrative levels' which can be recognised. The term integrative levels was first used by Joseph Needham in 1937 and has two key features. The first is that members of a given integrative level are unified entities and the second is that a member of one level is commonly composed of parts which are membe…

  For a long time China was considered a land of peasant-farmers with a government of 'oriental despotism' until one of the authors showed in his researches in Science and Civilisation in China that China had contributed much to the development of world science and technology. In this review, reasons why modern science arose in the West and not in China are discussed. A strong central government based on the continuity of an Imperial Court needed a…

  Une decouverte inattendue fut faite en 1985 par Robin Yates, lors de sa visite des grottes bouddhiques de Dazu, Sichuan : dans la grotte 149, une sculpture en haut-relief montre une bombarde tenue par un demon cornu. Cette bombarde, canon portable ou canon a main, est representee en fonctionnement (flammes et projectile). La datation de ce document est incertaine, sans doute vers 1128. Le demon oppose tient une bombe dans sa main droite. La forme…

  Everyone will, I am sure, be disposed to accept interpretation of Prof. Smith and Mr. Eichner that Filarete was describing a granulation process. The words the metal takes form imposed upon it by its nature as a metal, not by being poured into a mold, are surely quite significant, and there can be no doubt that at that time (and indeed long afterwards) it would have been convenient for many purposes to have cast iron end-product in form of small …
