            Karl-Eugen Kurrer zieht einen Vorhang nach dem anderen auf, er läßt uns diesen "Entwicklungsroman" wie auf einer Bühne im Zeitraffer erleben. (...) die Darstellung der Zusammenhänge und der Entwicklungsstränge (...), vor allem aber der Beteiligten mit der Einbindung in ihre Zeit und den daraus entstehenden Antrieben, machen das Buch zu einer Fundgrube und zu einem Lesebuch gleichermaßen. (...) Kurrer betritt Neuland. (...) er hat dies ohne Forschungsauftrag getan, aus eigenen Mitteln: eine herauszuhebende Leistung in einer Zeit, die den "Privatgelehrten" kaum noch kennt und anerkennt.

            Über die 1. Auflage, 2002
            
            Karl-Eugen Kurrers Buch zur Geschichte der Baustatik ist der für den deutschen Sprachraum längst überfällige Versuch, vor allem die moderne Geschichte dieser Disziplin aufzuarbeiten. Kurrer unterzieht sich mit seiner Arbeit der Mühe, institutionelle Entwicklungen, Zeitschriftengeschichte, Fortschritte der Technik wie auch biographische Details in die Geschichte der Theorieentwicklung sehr stark einzubeziehen und damit - unwillkürlich fokussiert auf die deutsche Entwicklung - eine moderne Statikgeschichte systematisch überhaupt erst bearbeitbar zu machen.
            
            Das Anliegen des Buchs wird im Geleitwort von Ekkehard Ramm kurz vorgestellt: Die Vorliebe Kurrers für eine eher systematische als chronologische Gliederung wird treffend hervorgehoben. Das erste der zehn Kapitel des Buches zur Historiographie der Baustatik hat den Charakter einer kurzen Einleitung und führt den Begriff der "Disziplinbildung" ein. Für den Leser mit Kenntnissen des Fachgebietes bietet die Geschichte der Statik ein Kompendium zum Blättern und Nachschlagen, für den interessierten Laien einen Einstieg in die Problemvielfalt dieser Disziplin vor allem an der Wende vom 19. und 20. Jahrhundert.

            Dr.-Ing. Kurrer is an established scholar who is also editor-in-chief of the influential structural engineering journal Stahlbau. This major book covers the history of structural analysis from 1575 to the present, although, as Dr Kurrer shows, structural analysis proper only starts in about 1825 (...).
            
            Stress analysis - the study of local conditions in a structure - is something different from the study of overall structural behaviour. The history of this subject seems to have been studied in its own right only for about half a century - Straub's history of civil engineering (German edition 1949; in English, 1952) goes back for the first time to the ancient world of Greece and Rome, before proceeding through Romanesque and Gothic to the construction of Renaissance bridges and domes, and so to the developments in structural engineering of the last two or three centuries. The same ground is partly covered by the great theoretical engineer Timoshenko; his 1953 History uses the words "strength of materials" in its title, but deals also with the development of tools of structural analysis.  The latest of these comprehensive accounts of the history of structural mechanics may be found in the second of Benvenuto's two volumes of 1991, which deals with vaulted structures and elastic systems. Thus the history of stress analysis, embracing elasticity and strength of materials, is reasonably well developed; by contrast, the history of the science of structures has undiscovered material of very great interest. It is this rich field that Dr Kurrer explores.(...) Much of the early development of analytical method for hyperstatic structures took place in nineteenth century Germany, and these advances are given extensive discussion; Maxwell and Castigliano are not ignored. Nor is the British work on plasticity, and John Baker is placed with Telford and Rankine as among the greatest British structural engineers.
            
            Each chapter is prefaced by a dozen lines of almost personal reflection on the author's involvement with the subject under discussion. Equally attractive are the forty pages of short biographies of over one hundred engineers who made major contributions to advances in structural theory and practice; most of these are illustrated by portraits. The illustrations throughout are fine, and there is an extensive bibliography.
