Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of an Industrial Science The following pages were written in hours snatched from a laborious profession, often at wide intervals apart, and generally after a long and exhausting day's work. They were afterwards put together, and partly rewritten, on shipboard, on my way here from the Antipodes. These conditions are not very favourable to that concentration and continuity of thought which a subject of the kind here treated of requires, and this must be my excuse for any defects that may be found in them, which, I have no doubt, are numerous enough. There is only one thing I take credit for, and that is, that I have endeavoured to put my ideas in as concise a form as possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Industrial Chemistry: A Text-Book for Students The object of this book is to furnish an elementary course in Industrial Chemistry, which may serve as the ground work for a more extended course of lectures, if desired. The writer has endeavored to describe briefly, within the limits of one moderate sized volume, the more important industrial chemical processes, but omitting matters of detail which properly belong in the larger hand books. Numerous references are made in the text to periodicals and journals, and to the standard hand-books and encyclopaedias and many special works, where details, lacking in this book, may be found. The bibliographical lists following each section are not complete, but only include those works which will usually be found in most chemical libraries; the references to the journal literature are merely those articles to which the author's attention has been drawn in the preparation of class-room exercises. The diagrams illustrating the text have, in most cases, been drawn as simply as possible, purposely showing only the essential features.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Industrial History: With Special Reference to Problems, of the Present Day The object of this little book is to sketch lightly some of the facts and phenomena which lie between school-boy history and the politics of the man. Modern life is so complicated, and the development of the last two hundred years has proceeded so rapidly, that those who have not specialised in history find it difficult to connect what they have learnt in their youth with the problems upon which they are called to express an Opinion in manhood's days. The historian, confining himself to documentary evidence and, in general, limiting his view to times so far remote that his interpretations may be free from suspicion of prejudice or party feeling, endeavours to draw a picture of things as they were, without reference to things as they are or may be. It is an inevitable result of his method that he should, as a rule, stop short of the problems which belong to his own age. And it is equally inevitable in periods of rapid social, economic, and political change, that the predominant features of one epoch should fade speedily and be replaced by others, quite different, in the next. Successive movements rise to maturity, and die away, to be followed by events which could hardly have been foreseen a quarter of a century before.

The diagrams illustrating the text have, in most cases, been drawn as simply as possible, purposely showing only the essential features. In the selection and order of arrangement of the several subjects, the author has necessarily been influenced by his work in this Institute and the requirements of his own class, but it is believed that the book as a whole will be found applicable to the work in most institutions of learning where industrial chemistry is taught. The subject of Metallurgy has been entirely omitted, since there are already several excellent brief text-books dealing with it alone, and instruction in it is generally given independently of that relating to technical chemistry. Likewise the important subject of the coal-tar colors has been condensed into the briefest possible outline, because this is nearly always included in courses in organic chemistry, and there are several small manuals treating of it. Analytical processes have also been omitted as foreign to the intended scope and purpose of the book. It is assumed that students taking this course are familiar with the elements of general chemistry, both inorganic and organic, and with the elements of physics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory Notes on Industrial Water Analysis, 1913: A Survey Course for Engineers Water is needed for many uses, the quality desired varying with the needs of the industry. The quality of water found depends upon the geological formations over which it flows or through which it percolates, and upon the previous use which man has made of it. Because of the growing scarcity of the supply, the increasing use per capita, the congestion of population and the occupation of even the desert and mountain slope, the securing of either safe potable water or water suited to manufacturing purposes becomes more and more difficult, and there is demanded a closer study of the country's resources and of waters suited to the different uses. Restrictions will undoubtedly be adopted in the near future preventing not only sheer waste and pollution, but assigning various supplies to the most suitable uses. In other words, certain sources of water supply must be saved for the most important needs, and certain other sources must be so treated as to make them usable. Water unsatisfactory for one purpose may be or may be made quite satisfactory for another. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Outlines of Political Science Classic Reprint written by George Gunton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Political Science Political science, in its most important aspect, is social economics practically applied. Strictly speaking, political science deals with human society in its various forms of political organization, and includes, therefore, the nature and practical methods of government. The importance of this phase of the subject should not be underestimated; but if mere government in the abstract, or its machinery and methods, were all there is of political science, the subject would have little interest except to the special student and little usefulness in practical affairs. The theoretical and mechanical side of political science is to the larger side, which we have called "social economics practically applied," what the skeleton is to the living, breathing, acting body. Political science legitimately includes the study of what the state, representing the people, can and should do to promote the general welfare; in what ways, if any, it can modify, direct or stimulate the action of economic forces wherever the natural laws governing those forces do not of themselves produce the results shown by experience to be wholesome, helpful and progressive. This side of political science is what binds it close at ever}' point to practical human life; this is what makes it of immediate and serious interest to every member, rich or poor, of organized society.

Download or read book Science and Technology in the Industrial Revolution written by Albert Edward Musson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1989 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrating on the Industrial Revolution as experienced in Great Britain (and, within that sphere, mainly on the early development of the engineering and chemical industries), the authors develop the thesis that the interaction between theorists and men of practical affairs was much closer, more complex and more consequential than some historians of science have held it to be. Deeply researched, gracefully argued and fully documented. First published in 1969, and established now as a "classic" in the field, the present edition has a new foreword by Margaret C. Jacob.
