AUTHOR

Lowell, Percival

SUMMARY

Notwithstanding the fact that Cathay was the happy possessor of gunpowder, movable type, and the compass before such things were dreamt of in Europe, she owed them to no knowledge of physics, chemistry, or mechanics. It was as arts, not as sciences, they were invented. And it speaks volumes for her civilization that she burnt her powder for fireworks, not for firearms.Lowell, Percival is the author of 'Soul of the Far East', published 2004 under ISBN 9781402141218 and ISBN 1402141211.
