Bostan, İdris. Osmanlı Deniz Teknolojisi. Istanbul: Küre Yayınları, 2023. 262 Sayfa

This review examines İdris Bostan's work entitled Osmanlı Deniz Teknolojisi (Ottoman Naval Technology). The book examines certain types of ships used in the Ottoman navy between the 16th and 19th centuries, technological transformations in major naval vessels, the role of European experts in the modernization process, and the developments in cannon-casting technology. Although it is not the first study devoted to Ottoman naval technology, the work offers original and significant contributions to the literature on maritime, technological, and economic history through its meticulous analysis based on archival documents. This review discusses the scope of these contributions.
