Technology changes society and environment since the onset of industrialization. Springer Engineering books accompany technological progress for about 170 years, with early authors such as Werner von Siemens and Rudolf Diesel. The huge and comprehensive Engineering eBook collection continues this tradition.
Its contemporary scope not only represents the entire classical areas of Mechanical, Electrical, and Civil Engineering in their widest sense. Much of its content reports the interdisciplinary applications between these areas and beyond their boundaries, as driven by the newest research results and innovations, e.g. in Communications, Biology and Medicine, or even Social Sciences. The collection caters to students by its rich set of textbooks, matching the diverse curricula of the different Engineering disciplines. Artificial Intelligence became an enabling technology for Engineering applications comparable to Computational (Numerical) methods. Hence, it can be found in many of the new Engineering books without even being mentioned in the title.
The 2024 collection displays a large diversity in all classical Engineering fields as well as new one like Cyper-physical Systems, represented by the 鈥淪pringer Handbook of Internet of Things鈥 or Quantum Technologies, as in the second edition of the textbook 鈥淚ntroduction to Quantum Computing鈥. There is a focus on Mechanics textbooks, often new editions, e.g. 鈥淔luid Mechanics for Mechanical Engineers鈥 or 鈥淭hermal Stresses in Plates and Shells鈥. Sustainability and Energy are topics that emerge in much of the collection as well, such as in 鈥淪ustainable Engineering鈥. The strong Springer tradition in Engineering design is perpetuated by 鈥淭he Design and Development Process鈥. Other significant clusters in 2024 are on Marine Engineering and Navigation, e.g. 鈥淓ssentials of Navigation鈥 and Bioengineering, e.g. "Significant and Nonsignificant Risk Medical Devices".
I would also like to mention 鈥淟ighting Technology鈥 a book for students and practitioners, as well as the deep insights provided by 鈥淐hina鈥檚 e-Science Blue Book 2023鈥 of the Chinese Acaademy of Science and other relevant government institutions.

Dieter Merkle, Vice President, graduated with a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from TU Darmstadt. He then joined Springer in 1991 as a Publishing Editor for German Professional books. In the following decade, he contributed substantially to the internationalization of the Springer Engineering program and eventually took responsibility for the Engineering editorial team as Editorial Director. The launch of eBooks in the mid-2000s expanded both the quantity and the scope of his list. Hence his current remit is Applied Sciences.If you would like to find out more about licensing the Engineering eBook Collection, contact your Licensing Manager.
