Technology Index Retrospective: 1913-1983—a vast mine of
historical content from the acclaimed H.W. Wilson references
Applied Science & Technology Index and Industrial Arts Index.
With coverage of more than 1,400 periodicals encompassing more than
3 million articles, Applied Science & Technology Index
Retrospective helps users track down important studies, probe
historical controversies, find papers by innovators, research the
development of technologies, explore corporate chronicles, review
historical opinion and predictions, and much more.
From the rise and fall of thalidomide to the
effects of pesticides on the environment, from the evolution of
satellite technology to the dawn of the global economy, users will
find the most pivotal papers and informative articles to aid
research on any historical subject.
Coverage includes the gamut of applied science
specialties--acoustics to aeronautics, machine learning to
meteorology, textiles to transportation. A dedicated editorial board

Science & Technology Index and Industrial Arts Index—and
their emphasis on quality and peer-review ensures that the most
relevant sources in each applied science specialty are represented
in Applied Science & Technology Index Retrospective.
Updated subject headings make finding information
easy with contemporary terms, though original subject headings are
