"In focusing an archeologist's eye on electrical technology in the eighteenth century, Michael Brian Schiffer brings fresh and valuable insight to the study of the process of technological diffusion. At the same time he provides a lively account of how an interest in electricity spread across a surprisingly broad range of Enlightenment society."--Bernard Finn, Curator, Electrical Collections, Smithsonian Institution "Michael Brian Schiffer brings his love of technology and archaeology together into a great story of the Age of Enlightenment.
