Tóm tắt

The combination of Asian studies and Physics is a unique blend rarely found in a Western scientific classroom. The field of Asian studies is rapidly growing and branching out into scientific realms. At the same time, there is a growing need to educate our young people in science, technology and mathematics (STEM). This book presents scientific principles through the technology and inventions of ancient China. It explores these ideas in their historical context, as well as through the lens of current scientific understanding.
