Current Bibliography in the History of Technology (1986) The following compilation is the twenty-fifth annual bibliography of current publications on the history of technology. The reader is referred to previous bibliographies pertaining to the history of tech nology (see Technology and Culture, Winter 1964, the Spring issues for 1965 and 1966, and the April issues, 1967 through 1987) and to the fifth publication in the SHOT monograph series, Eugene S. Fergu son’s Bibliography ofthe History of Technology (Cambridge, Mass.: SHOT and MIT Press, 1968). As in past years, several individuals have again provided assistance with translation of foreign language titles. Their efforts facilitate ac curate subject and chronological classification; therefore, we would like to express our appreciation to Dr. Steven Goldman, Dr. James Saeger, and Victoria Dow of Lehigh University. We continue to be grateful for the receipt of numerous compli mentary subscriptions tojournals, newsletters, and other publications, and to the many individuals, too numerous to list here, who continue to send us citations to books and articles. The preparation of this manuscript for publication requires the dedicated and attentive efforts of several individuals other than the compilers. We would particularly like to express our gratitude to Christine Andrews and Mary Jo Carlen. Science, Technology and Society Program Stephen H.
