About the author
George Bugliarello was born in Italy where he received his early education. He was a Fulbright scholar at the University of Minnesota from 1952 to 1954 (M.S. civil engineering) and received a Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1959. In his distinguished academic career, Bugliarello has taught and done research at Carnegie-Mellon University, the Technical University of Berlin, and the University of Illinois at Chicago. Since 1973, he has been president of the Polytechnic University of New York Bugliarello has published in fields as diverse as civil engineering, computer languages, biomedical engineering, and fluid mechanics. In addition, he has always shown concern for the role of the engineer and the social implications of technology. This is reflected in particular by his founding the journal Technology in Society in 1978. Bugliarello has been influential as a member of the National Academy of Engineering and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, as well as serving as editor of Technology in Society. Bugliarello chaired a commission and edited its report Science and Technology in New York City for the Twenty-first Century: Report by the Mayor's Commission for Science and Technology (Polytechnic Press 1989). In his publications, Bugliarello urges more cooperation between the historian and the engineer.
