Looking for engineering specific business history books
Hi all,
currently putting together a company history for an engineering services (consulting but with some end to end prototyping and machining involved) SME and was wondering if anybody had any particularly interesting more engineering forward business history books/ profiles to reccomend.
general keyword searching is largely polluted by the legacy of management consulting being historically labelled "management engineering" which means any search for company specific profiles/ books will be filled with the usual McKinsey or even banking/ finance focused books rather than more small scale micro-histories or engineering problem focused novels, a decent example of what im looking for is perhaps "the idea factory" but on a less grandiose scale.
