Yet as well as being a key industry for the economy, construction is also important for society: Modern life without buildings and infrastructure would be simply inconceivable. With that in mind, this publication presents the engineering profession (and by extension the entire industry) as it really is: Fascinating, creative, diverse and innovative. Engineers and their innovations are presented in the context of their social, economic and political influences. The book combines an historical perspective with a focus on contemporary projects. • A look at the social, cultural and technologicalrelevance of engineering• Development of the profession through larger-than-life personalities in their field and in the context of their times• Social trends, innovations and challenges facing engineers, documented using current projects
