内容説明

Volume 12 (4 titles bound in one volume) 978-0-415-46317-1 GBP80.00 Hephaestus, or the Soul of the Machine E E Fournier d'Albe Originally published in 1925 "An exceedingly clever defence of machinery." Architects' Journal "...a thought-provoking essay." Birmingham Post Will the machine ultimately enslave or save the human race? This is the question which this volume addresses in a study of the machine and the mechanistic age in which we live. 76pp Ouroborus, or the Mechanical Extension of Mankind G Garrett Originally published in 1926 "This brilliant and provoking book." Observer "A significant essay...calculated to make our flesh creep." Spectator Will the machines in the end drive the world to destruction? What will happen when the machines have raised productiveness so high that even the poor are provided with ample luxuries? The volume predicts that with decreasing demand there will be widespread unemployment, a struggle for new markets which become impossible to find and finally a failure of food supply. 90pp Artifex or the Future of Craftsmanship John Gloag Originally published in 1926 "An able and interesting summary..."
