Sinossi
Excerpt from A Manual of the Steam Engine: And Other Prime Movers
Two improvements made by Savery on his engine are not shown in the figure: a second receiver, similar to a, and standing alongside of it, to be filled and emptied alternately with a, so as to keep up a continuous stream of water; and an auxiliary boiler, or heating vessel, in which water was heated before being supplied to the principal boiler j; and from which the water was forced into f by the pressure of steam when required.

The author takes readers on a journey through centuries of innovation, tracing the development of this powerful machine from its earliest iterations to its widespread adoption in the 19th century. From the rudimentary designs of Hero of Alexandria to the groundbreaking inventions of James Watt, the book delves into the scientific and practical challenges that engineers faced as they sought to harness the power of steam. It highlights the crucial role of scientific understanding in driving progress and shows how empirical knowledge, combined with theoretical breakthroughs, led to the creation of increasingly efficient and sophisticated steam engines. The book goes beyond a mere chronology of inventions, examining the impact of the steam engine on society. It explores the economic and social transformations brought about by the use of steam power in factories, mines, and transportation.

The book ultimately underscores the profound influence of the steam engine on the course of human history, paving the way for the industrial revolution and shaping the modern world.
