There’s more about Thomas Edison in The Languages of Edison’s Light than most
people want to know. Edison was no slouch at seeing business opportunities, and
Charles Bazerman sets the career of the inventor firmly in the commercial
conditions of his time. Sometimes he labours the obvious: “Electrical
engineering became a significant professional and educational network…only
with the generation of electricity.” Well, yes. Edison’s drawings are
interesting. Published by MIT Press, 拢27.50, ISBN 026202456X.
