Title: TECHNOLOGY AND THE CULTURE OF MODERNITY IN BRITAIN AND GERMANY, 1890-1945
Description: "This book examines the obsession for new technology that swept through Britain and Germany between 1890 and 1945. Drawing on a wide range of popular contemporary writings and pictorial material, it explains how, despite frequently feeling overwhelmed by innovations, Germans and Britons nurtured a long-lasting fascination for aviation, glamorous passenger liners, and film as they lived through profound social transformations and two vicious wars." "This innovative study will prove invaluable reading to anyone interested in German and British history as well as the history of technology."--BOOK JACKET.
