Notas do Editor
- Machine Age is a term associated with the early 20th Century. Considered to be at a peak in the time between the first and second World Wars it forms a late part of the Industrial Age. It was ultimately eclipsed by the Atomic Age beginning in 1945. Artifacts of the Machine Age include: Mass production of high volume goods on moving assembly lines Gigantic production machinery Powerful earthmoving equipment Steel framed buildings of great height (the skyscraper ) Radio and phonograph technology
