This book consists of chapters that focus specifically on single figures that worked on Descriptive Geometry and also in Mechanisms Sciences and contain biographical notes; a survey of their work and their achievements; together with a modern interpretation of their legacy.Since Vitruvius in ancient times; and with Brunelleschi in the Renaissance; the two disciplines began to share a common direction which; over the centuries; took shape through less well-known figures until the more recent times in which Gaspard Monge worked.Over the years; a gap has been created between Descriptive Geometry and Mechanism Science; which now appear to belong to different worlds. In reality; however; there is a very close relationship between the two disciplines; with a link based on extremely solid foundations. Without the theoretical foundations of Geometry it would not be possible to draw and design mechanical parts such as gears; while in Kinematics it would be less easy to design and predict the reciprocal movements of parts in a complex mechanical assembly.
