Road to Colossus: Invention, Technology, and the Machining of America - Thomas Kiernan Book

All but science :))

This book focuses intensely on leaving ourselves to god and absorb the mind of the lord ... :|
I couldn't relate almost any of the stuff to science.

There were a couple of nice insights, though, for example, the author argues that everything and everyone we see, are in their perfect state, striving for getting better and better, and that's how the universe has been working. For instance, he says that we cannot say locomotives fueled with coal are bad, no, they were great in their time and laid the foundation of modern transportation. Hence, people we encounter, no matter how bad their manner might be, they are perfect and are on their way to sophistication. I really liked this argument.
