Famous quotes containing the words history of, history and/or development:

    The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.
    Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)

    The history of philosophy is to a great extent that of a certain clash of human temperaments.
    William James (1842–1910)

    Men are only as good as their technical development allows them to be.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)
