Ships and Science is a meticulously researched, scholarly book...Any maritime historian or maritime architecture scholar should benefit from reading this erudite, thought-provoking book.—Louis Arthur Norton, The Northern Mariner— This volume should be required reading for all students of naval architecture. —Marine Technology— This is a superb volume, and is likely to be regarded in coming years as the starting point of the now fast growing study of the foundations of applied science and engineering. —Fred M. Walker, Mariner's Mirror— Highly recommended. —Choice—
