10、iences who actually shaped the Western world.It all started during the period that historians call the Scottish Enlightenment (启蒙运动), which is usually seen as taking place between the years 1740 and 1800. Before that, philosophy was mainly concerned with religion. For the thinkers of the Scottish En
11、lightenment, the proper study of humanity was mankind itself.Their reasoning was practical. For the philosopher David Hume, humanity was the right subject for philosophy because we can examine human behavior and so find real evidence of how people think and feel. And from that we can make judgments
12、about the societies we live in and make concrete suggestions about how they can be improved, for universal benefit.Humes enquiry into the nature of knowledge laid the foundations for the scientific method-the pursuit of truth through experiment. His friend and fellow resident of Edinburgh, Adam Smit
13、h, famously applied the study of mankind to the ways in which mankind does business. Trade, he argued, was a form of information. In pursuing our own interests through trading in markets, we all come to benefit each other.Smiths idea has dominated modern views of economics. It also has wide applicat
14、ions. He was one of the philosophers to point out that nations can become rich, free and powerful through peace, trade and invention.Although the Scottish Enlightenment ended a long time ago, the ideas which evolved at that time still underpin(构成的基础) our theories of human exchange and enquiry.

41、cannot overlook Henry Ford. A historian a century from now might well conclude that it was Ford who most influenced all manufacturing, everywhere, even to this day, by introducing a new way to make cars-one, strange to say, that originated in slaughterhouses.Back in the early 1900s,slaughterhouses u
42、sed what could have been called a “disassembly line. “Ford reversed this process to see if it would speed up production of a part of an automobile engine called a magneto. Rather than have each worker completely assemble a magneto, one of its elements was placed on a conveyer, and each worker, as it
43、 passed, added another component to it, the same one each time. Professor David of the University of Delaware, an expert on industrial development ,tells what happened:“The previous day,workers carrying out the entire process had averaged one assembly every 20 minutes. But on that day,on the line,th
44、e assembly team averaged one every 13 minutes and 10 seconds per person. “Within a year,the time had been reduced to five minutes. In 1913,Ford went all the way. Hooked together by ropes, partially assembled vehicles were towed past workers who completed them on piece at a time. It wasnt long before
45、 Ford was turning out several hundred thousand cars a year,a remarkable achievement then. And so efficient and economical was this new system that he cup the price of his cars in half,to $ 260,putting them within reach of all those who, up until that time, could not afford them. Soon, auto makers th
46、e world over copied him. In fact, he encouraged them to do so by writing a book about all of his innovations, entitled Today and Tomorrow. The Age of the Automobile has arrived. Today, aided by robots and other forms of automation,everything from toasters to perfumes are made on assembly lines.(分数:1
