Hands of Time - A Watchmaker's History Hands of Time - A Watchmaker's History is a captivating journey through the evolution of timekeeping, from its earliest attempts to the present day. Acclaimed watchmaker Rebecca Struthers masterfully weaves together art, science, history, and social commentary to explore how these intricate instruments have shaped our understanding of time and, ultimately, our humanity. As Simon Winchester, author of The Perfectionists and Land, so eloquently puts it, "Impeccably crafted and precisely engineered, this book is a joy to behold and a wonder to enjoy. " The story begins with the earliest attempts at timekeeping, where the need for accurate measurement was essential for navigation and trade expeditions. We follow the development of timepieces through the centuries, witnessing the breakthroughs in engineering that gave us the first watches and the subsequent paradigm shifts in how we think about time. Struthers reveals how these instruments have not only helped us navigate the world but also influenced human development itself. Throughout the book, Struthers shares her personal observations as an expert watchmaker, one of the few remaining in the world today. Her lively voice and custom line drawings by her husband, fellow watchmaker Craig, bring the subject to life, making it accessible to readers who may not be familiar with horology.
Hands of Time - A Watchmaker's History Hands of Time - A Watchmaker's History - увлекательное путешествие по эволюции хронометража, от самых ранних попыток до наших дней. Известный часовщик Ребекка Стразерс мастерски сплетает воедино искусство, науку, историю и социальные комментарии, чтобы исследовать, как эти сложные инструменты сформировали наше понимание времени и, в конечном итоге, нашего человечества. Как красноречиво выразился Саймон Винчестер, автор книги "The Perfectionists and Land": "Безупречно созданная и точно спроектированная, эта книга - радость для восприятия и чудо для наслаждения. "История начинается с самых ранних попыток хронометража, где необходимость точного измерения была необходима для навигации и торговых экспедиций. Мы следим за развитием часов на протяжении веков, наблюдая за прорывами в инженерии, которые дали нам первые часы и последующие изменения парадигмы в том, как мы думаем о времени. Стразерс рассказывает, как эти инструменты не только помогли нам ориентироваться в мире, но и повлияли на само развитие человека. На протяжении всей книги Стразерс делится своими личными наблюдениями как опытный часовщик, один из немногих оставшихся в мире на сегодняшний день. Её живой голос и пользовательские рисунки-линии её мужа, товарища часовщика Крейга, оживляют предмет, делая его доступным для читателей, которые могут быть не знакомы с хорологией.

Rebecca Strazers, une horlogère de renom, est en train de tisser des liens avec l'art, la science, l'histoire et les commentaires sociaux pour explorer comment ces instruments complexes ont façonné notre compréhension du temps et, finalement, de notre humanité. Comme l'a dit avec éloquence mon Winchester, auteur de The Perfectionists and Land : "Impeccablement conçu et conçu avec précision, ce livre est une joie pour la perception et un miracle pour le plaisir. "L'histoire commence par les premières tentatives de chronométrage, où la nécessité d'une mesure précise était nécessaire pour la navigation et les expéditions commerciales. Nous suivons l'évolution de l'horloge au fil des siècles, en observant les avancées de l'ingénierie qui nous ont donné les premières heures et les changements de paradigme qui ont suivi dans notre façon de penser le temps. Strazers explique comment ces outils nous ont non seulement aidés à naviguer dans le monde, mais aussi influencé le développement humain lui-même. Tout au long du livre, Strazers partage ses observations personnelles en tant qu'horloger expérimenté, l'un des rares qui reste dans le monde à ce jour. Sa voix vivante et les dessins personnalisés de son mari, le camarade horloger Craig, animent le sujet, le rendant accessible aux lecteurs qui ne connaissent peut-être pas l'horlogerie.

Hands of Time - A Watchmaker 's History Hands of Time - A Watchmaker 's History ist eine faszinierende Reise durch die Entwicklung des Timings, von den frühesten Versuchen bis zur Gegenwart. Die renommierte Uhrmacherin Rebecca Strathers verwebt meisterhaft Kunst, Wissenschaft, Geschichte und soziale Kommentare, um zu untersuchen, wie diese komplexen Werkzeuge unser Verständnis von Zeit und letztendlich unserer Menschheit geprägt haben. Wie es mon Winchester, Autor des Buches "Die Perfektionisten und das Land", eloquent ausdrückte: "Makellos geschaffen und präzise gestaltet, ist dieses Buch eine Freude für die Wahrnehmung und ein Wunder für den Genuss. "Die Geschichte beginnt mit den frühesten Versuchen der Zeitmessung, bei denen die Notwendigkeit einer genauen Messung für Navigations- und Handelsexpeditionen erforderlich war. Wir verfolgen die Entwicklung der Uhren im Laufe der Jahrhunderte und beobachten die Durchbrüche in der Technik, die uns die ersten Uhren und die nachfolgenden Paradigmenwechsel in der Art und Weise, wie wir über die Zeit denken, beschert haben. Strathers erzählt, wie diese Werkzeuge uns nicht nur geholfen haben, in der Welt zu navigieren, sondern auch die menschliche Entwicklung selbst beeinflusst haben. Im Laufe des Buches teilt Struthers seine persönlichen Beobachtungen als erfahrener Uhrmacher, einer der wenigen, die bis heute auf der Welt geblieben sind. Ihre Live-Stimme und die benutzerdefinierten Zeichnungslinien ihres Mannes, Uhrmacherkollegen Craig, beleben das Thema und machen es sern zugänglich, die mit der Chorologie vielleicht nicht vertraut sind.

أيدي الزمن - تاريخ صانع الساعات - تاريخ صانع الساعات هو رحلة رائعة عبر تطور ضبط الوقت، من المحاولات الأولى حتى يومنا هذا. تنسج صانعة الساعات الشهيرة ريبيكا ستروثرز بخبرة الفن والعلوم والتاريخ والتعليقات الاجتماعية لاستكشاف كيف شكلت هذه الأدوات المعقدة فهمنا للوقت، وفي النهاية، إنسانيتنا. كما قال سايمون وينشستر، مؤلف كتاب "الكماليون والأرض"، ببلاغة: "تم تصميم هذا الكتاب بدقة وبشكل لا تشوبه شائبة، وهو متعة للإدراك ومعجزة للاستمتاع بها. "تبدأ القصة بأقدم محاولات ضبط الوقت، حيث كانت الحاجة إلى قياس دقيق ضرورية للملاحة وتداول الرحلات الاستكشافية. نتابع تطور الساعة على مر القرون، ونلاحظ الاختراقات في الهندسة التي أعطتنا الساعة الأولى والتحولات النموذجية اللاحقة في كيفية تفكيرنا في الوقت. يروي ستروثرز كيف أن هذه الأدوات لم تساعدنا في التنقل في العالم فحسب، بل أثرت أيضًا على التنمية البشرية نفسها. في جميع أنحاء الكتاب، يشارك ستروثرز ملاحظاته الشخصية كصانع ساعات بارع، وهو أحد الملاحظات القليلة المتبقية في العالم حتى الآن. صوتها المفعم بالحيوية والرسومات الخطية المخصصة لزوجها، زميلها صانع الساعات كريج، تجعل الموضوع في متناول القراء الذين قد لا يكونون على دراية بعلم الجوقة.
