Stronger Than a Hundred Men
Author: Terry S. Reynolds
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 9780801872488
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
Like many apparently simple devices, the vertical water wheel has been around for so long that it is taken for granted. Yet this "picturesque artifact" was for centuries man's primary mechanical source of power and was the foundation upon which mills and other industries developed. Stronger than a Hundred Men explores the development of the vertical water wheel from its invention in ancient times through its eventual demise as a source of power during the Industrial Revolution. Spanning more than 2000 years, Terry Reynolds's account follows the progression of this labor-saving device from Asia to the Middle East, Europe, and America-covering the evolution of the water wheel itself, the development of dams and reservoirs, and the applications of water power.

Book Description
Bathtime is fun-time for toddlers with this floating vinyl book in the Water Wheels series. It's shaped like a car and cleverly weighted at its bottom so that it actually stands upright on its wheels when placed in the bath water with pages closed. All Water Wheels books have a strap attachment to keep them closed when they're afloat. When kids open the book, they'll find an illustrated little story about a car.

Wheels in the Sky
Author: Komzsik Louis Komzsik
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1426931743
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
If you have ever wondered how the universe physically works, then this book focusing on the central role that rotational motion plays in our daily lives will lead you to new discoveries, knowledge, and wisdom. Rotation is found everywhere but often overlooked. There are rotating wheels on cars, wheels that spin in games of chance, Ferris wheels at city carnivals, and other manifestations of rotation that play an essential role in virtually everything we do. Even more important is how everyday phenomena driven by rotation make up life's intrinsic components. Supported by historical information about the lives of individuals who have contributed to the understanding of rotation, this book delves into the physical principles that explain hurricanes, trade winds, gravity measurements, and much more. Rotation continues to play a large role in the world, and it's possible that the universe itself rotates. Take a journey defined by new ideas and little-known facts in Wheels in the Sky, a must read for anyone interested in the origin and workings of the universe.
