Science Articles from 1899

Book Summary by: AcaDemon     


By the end of the nineteenth century, American society had already seen many incredible technological advances, which were
greatly influencing the way of life. At this time, many scientific and technological journals were being published which kept the interested scientists and technicians informed on the latest advances and breakthroughs in the field of inventions. This paper shows that other journals such as McClure's Magazine were aimed at the average American citizen who simply enjoyed leisure reading.

This paper shows how McClure's Magazine, in the late nineteenth century, examined topics in science and technology as well as fiction, poetry, politics and life in society.
