Reviews

Diesel was ten years younger than Edison and Westinghouse and five years senior to Ford, yet his technological achievements must rank with theirs in relation to the production and utilization of power. Unlike the Americans, however, Diesel was much more the theoretical engineer and much less the mechanic. His career provides an interesting and contrasting case study of the inventor-entrepreneur."" - Harvard Business Review

""This sympathetic and well-written biography also illuminates the . . . times in which [Diesel] lived. . . . A worthwhile addition to both technical and general collections."" - Library Journal
