ENThis monograph „The Heritage and Its Roots of Material Culture“ was presented and published by Stonys Justinas Pranas. [...] The heritage of material culture is the one that is inherited from previous generations or from people who are still alive. Material culture is the build up environment, which influences our survival in the nature we are living in. [...] Museums should be a space, which stimulates to learn new thing. Some educational programs are useful, it usually might be applied to students. The students should not look for the way to learn, but museums should try to awake the imagination of the visitors, to broaden the limits of their cognition. [...] Museums help to naturally materialize the connection between the human being and the reality. This connection shows up as people systematically and carefully select, preserve and accumulate the movable items to demonstrante the evolution of the nature and the society, helping to create its cultural, educational and pedagogical value. [...] As it is usual, museums exhibit not only the examples of material culture from the close geographical environment, but also from other countries. It lets to be aware of the cultural differences and visitors are able to go into deeper insights. [...] The heritage of material culture at the Old Technique Museum is huge, but it mostly reflects the years coming after XX century. There are fewer items from previous times. [...] The museum has a huge number of different documents from different eras. It still recopilates the press and books about the ancient crafts and tecnique from different eras. We can be proud that the pressed, released during the soviet times in USA is also brought to our museum. [...] The present monograph [...] describes an unique example of the school of Vibrotechnics, known not only in Lithuania, but also all over the world, its results together with the data about its founder Kazimieras Ragulskis.The chapter called „Quivers and tides in the science and technique“ presents the science called vibrotecnics and its development in Lithuania in detail. It introduces the history and the stages of evolution of that school and its transition into worldwide recognized school. The present monograph gives the information on what has been done to Lithuania and also presents some opinions from other scientists. It is unique because the informatikn is given not by scientists working in that institution, but by other scientists. The world has found out that Lithuania is able to produce global science thanks to that school, as it created a completely different area of science. From the philosophical perspective, all of these three hundred scientists with their staff, leaded by Kazimieras Ragulskis, have created a strong background for the development of spiritual culture and it would influence the appearance and further development of material culture not only in Lithuania, but also in the whole world.
