About the book

"Conceptual founder of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, William Barton Rogers was a highly influential scientific mind and educational reformer of the nineteenth century. A. J. Angulo recounts the largely unknown story of one man's ideas and how they gave way to the creation of one of America's premier institutions of higher learning." "Exploring the intersection of Rogers's educational philosophy and the rise of technical institutes in America, this biography offers a long-overdue account of the man behind MIT."--BOOK JACKET.
