Ancient Chinese Achievements
 

• Ancient Chinese Technology
  Chinese Science and Culture was a sketch of a global history of science and technology which emphasized China as the origin of many of the prerequisite technologies of modernity-- printing, the compass, gunpowder, cast iron, and so on-- and discussed the historical and intellectual contexts of Chinese empirical and theoretical knowledge of the physical world.  It was basically an effort to dismantle the assumption that there is something essentially "Western" about science and technology.
