"Science finds its origins in the world's earliest civilizations. Between 2,500 and 500 years ago, the Chinese knew more about science and technology than any other culture. Their knowledge of compasses and calenders, antiseptics and eclipses, acupuncture and gunpowder has had a tremendous impact on the scientific advances made throught the world during the last few centuries" --Cover, p. 4.
