Bryan Lawton received ASME's EngineeringHistorian Award in 2016 for his acclaimed book, Various and Ingenious Machines. VIM is a 1300 page, twovolume work, which provides a wellresearched history of mechanical engineering worldwide, from prehistory to roughly the beginnings of industrialization.One of the main purposes of his twovolume VIM is to not only deliver an outline of mechanical engineering history, but also to provide an adequate mathematical treatment for each topic, without straying beyond an engineering first degree level. Thus the reader can enjoy a wellwritten history and can supplement it with a concise mathematical explanation in the appendices at the end of most of the chapters.ASME Press is offering VIM in a shortened, more affordable and accessible form, to serve as a guide for possibly probing deeper into the parent work. Volume 1 covers early mining and metalworking.
