Technology and Culture, the preeminent journal of the history of technology, draws on scholarship in diverse disciplines to publish insightful pieces intended for general readers as well as specialists.
The journal first appeared in 1959 at the initiative of the United States-based Society for the History of Technology (SHOT) and is published by Johns Hopkins University Press. Technology & Culture appears four times a year and is also accessible online.
