| Abstract: | A curiosity concerning the history of mechanical calculating machines is that they came into the offices later than 1870. At that time, their theoretical and constructive principles were known for more than 200 years. The Brunsviga-story is a good example of the thesis that the diffusion of technical products is not only a technical or economic problem but it could only be understood considering the whole cultural context. |
