Abstract

This article presents views and experiences of several engineers. Experts point out that books about the nature and history of technology can help round out an engineering education. Spencer Bondhus, a B.S.M.E degree holder, has been developing new products in the medical device industry. Adam Leemans has completed a Master of Science degree in energy and sustainability. Jill Hershman, another B.S.M.E graduate, finds Fearless Leadership: High-Performance Lessons From the Flight Deck by Carey D. Lohrenz very helpful in broad engineering thinking. Maxim Budyansky, the chief technology officer and co-founder of Avitus Orthopaedics, likes to learn about different ways of thinking as in The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom by Don Miguel Ruiz and Become What You Are by Alan W. Watts and also from self-improvement books like Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People.
