本书为英语原版，精装本，原定价345.00美元，净重1430克，馆藏。【图书分类：自然科学总论 > 自然科学理论与方法论 > 自然科学史 > 中国】Science and Civilisation in China Volume V Part 6 is the first of the three parts dealing with the arts of war in ancient and medieval China. (Part 7--on gunpowder and all aspects of explosive weapons--has already been published, while Part 8--on cavalry techniques and signaling--is still in preparation.) The present volume opens with an introduction on Chinese attitudes to warfare in general. Four major sections follow: on the making and use of simple bows; on the crossbow, the standard weapon of the Han armies, and its introduction to the Western world; on the pre-gunpowder forms of artillery, including the invention of the trebuchet; and on the art of siege warfare in which the Mohists were particularly interested. There is a good deal of material on siege-warfare available, and this final section is a substantial one, covering all aspects in detail.
Review：
\"...readers...will find no other single source that brings together the evolution of Chinese military technology, systematically sets it alongside contemporary developments in the West, and examines the connections between them. This book is essential reading for everyone interested in ancient and medieval European warfare as well as for those who study the art of war in China.\" Geoffrey Parker, The Journal of Military History
\"...a heroic and successful effort by those, including the publisher, who have accomplished it.\" Robert P. Multhauf, Technology and Culture
\"This fine, copiously illustrated volume edited by Joseph Needham and Robin D.S. Yates reminds us how much the excavations of recent decades have changed our understanding of ancient China...Yates explicates incomplete or intractable texts as thoroughly as possible, and his tendency to speculate is balanced by his excellent use of written and archaeological sources....he also highlights the complex ways in which warfare and culture have been linked in China since antiquity. This work is a mine of information on a broad range of topics and indispensable reading for historians of technology, military thought and philosophy, and urbanizations.\" Joanna Waley-Cohen, Asia
\"[An] astonishing and enduring study...[Needham brings] depth of emotion and technical finesse to his task.\"
Jonathan Spence, New York Review of Books
\"Perhaps the greatest single act of historical synthesis and intercultural communication ever attempted by one man.\"
Laurence Picken, Cambridge University
