Science: Henry Petroski: 'The Essential Engineer'
Science alone is not the answer to our problems, says Henry Petroski; what the world needs now is some practical engineering. Petroski, author of The Essential Engineer (and previously heard at Town Hall discussing The Toothpick: Technology and Culture), says that while science can identify problems around climate change, natural disasters, and renewable energy, it falls to the engineer to solve them. Science and engineering must work together now, he saysâjust like they did on the steamship, the airplane, and the moon landing. Presented as part of Seattle Science Lectures, with Pacific Science
