Thank you! It's been on my reading list for a while so this is a good reminder to check it out. I've also recently learned that the concept of entropy was developed during the industrial revolution to make engines more efficient, so definitely a relevant book.
Oh yeah the book talks extensively about James Watt, his colleagues, the bourgeois perspectives on efficiency, how the scientific and cultural understanding of mechanical devices (and to a lesser extent, the natural processes that served as their foundation) was shaped by industrial development, all the juicy stuff.
