中文摘要:

      《伟大的工程师》是艾弗·哈特撰写的一本技术史袖珍著作，于1928年出版。在科学史还没有成为独立学科的时代问世的这本小书，以今天的学术视角来看，不仅符合科学史著作的专业规范，还包含着作者很多在今天仍不落伍的学术思想。这本由作者当年精雕细刻的小书，是研究西方技术史以及技术史学科本身发展历史都不可忽视的佳作，值得认真品味。

英文摘要:

      The Great Engineers written by Ivor B. Hart was a pocket book on the history of technology，it was published in 1928 when the history of science is not an independent discipline yet. However, when seen from today’s academic views，the book conforms to the professional norms of the history of technology，and also it contains many academic thoughts of its author，which are even quite right and make sense today. The little book was elaborately written by his author in his times，it is a very good book which should not be neglected in researching the history of technology，and the development history of history of technology itself. The book is worth carefully reading.
