The Shorter Science and Civilisation in China: Volume 5 Paperback - 1995
by Colin a. Ronan
First line
No ancient country in the world did more in civil engineering, both as to scale and skill, than China, and this is particularly so when it comes to hydraulic engineering in all its aspects.
From the rear cover
This fifth volume of Colin Ronan's abridgement of Joseph Needham's monumental work is concerned with the staggering civil engineering feats made in early and medieval China. No other country did more, both as to scale and skill, than China. This book opens with an account of the road system, which compared and unfavourably with that of the Roman Empire.
