"Technology has been fundamental to German political, economic, social, and cultural development. Karsten Uhl provides the first systematic overview of its central role since the 19th century, incorporating classic studies of key technologies with findings and emerging themes from the most recent literature." -- Ray Stokes, Chair of Business History (Economic & Social History), University of Glasgow, UK "Technology in Modern German History is the first comprehensive study to explore the profound significance of technology in modern German history. This study is insightful, interesting, and eminently readable and will be of interest both to scholars and students." -- Dolores L. Augustine, Professor, Department of History, St. John's University, USA "Karsten Uhl's Technology in Modern German History serves as an excellent introduction to the history of technology in Germany... The book's secondary source materials explicitly build on foundational texts within the field of history of technology, thereby reenforcing the book's position as an overview resource, one that serves to introduce students not only to German history of technology but also to the history of technology as a whole." -- H-Net Reviews in the Humanities & Social Sciences " Technology in Modern German History is an excellent and stimulating overview of essential themes in the history of German technology with a helpful bibliography of English-language sources." --Andrea Maestrejuan, Central European History "This is a highly readable and informative survey that succeeds in covering many important features of the history of technology in Germany and convincingly integrates recent methodological developments." --Marcus Popplow, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany, Technology and Culture "A critical and comprehensive work that is indeed essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the profound impact of technology on Germany's development. The work not only gives the reader access to classic works in the field, but also provides new insights and stimulates the reader's interest in exploring the field of academic research in depth." -- The Paper (Bloomsbury translation) "Karsten Uhl has written a valuable book that will help readers grasp both the complexity and richness of the German technological heritage." -- Journal of Modern History, "Technology has been fundamental to German political, economic, social, and cultural development.

Synopsis
People often associate postwar Germany with technology and with its products of mass consumption, such as luxury cars. Even pop music, most notably Kraftwerk (literally 'power station') with songs such as Autobahn , Radioactivity or We are the Robots , disseminates the stereotype of a close link between German culture and technology. Technology in Modern German History explores various forms of technology in 200 years of German history and explains how technology has been fundamental to the shaping of modern Germany. The book investigates the role technology played in transforming Germany's culture, society and politics during the 19th and 20th centuries. Key topics covered include the different stages of industrialization, the growth of networked cities, and the triumph of a teleological narrative of technology as progress. Moreover, it provides a critical revision of the history of high technology which reveals how high-tech euphoria determined certain paths in history regardless of whether the respective technology proved to be successful. In its second part, the volume introduces new avenues in scholarship. Karsten Uhl examines neglected areas, such as rural technologies or the often-overlooked importance of everyday technologies: How did consumers or workers use new technologies? How did they appropriate and modify them? Lastly, the book considers the final decades of the 20th century and asks if they provided a significant new quality of technological change: To what degree and effects did computerization transform professional and private life in Germany? In culture and politics, reinforced by the German variety of environmentalism, the idea of progress was challenged, as the once prevailing vision of progress gave way to new apprehensions of uncertainty evident to this day. Technology in Modern German History brings fascinating insight into a much neglected area of German history for students and scholars alike.

    Seller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.

    The first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
