Download or read book Paper Paging Through History written by Mark Kurlansky and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times best-selling author of Cod and Salt, a definitive history of paper and the astonishing ways it has shaped today’s world. Paper is one of the simplest and most essential pieces of human technology. For the past two millennia, the ability to produce it in ever more efficient ways has supported the proliferation of literacy, media, religion, education, commerce, and art; it has formed the foundation of civilizations, promoting revolutions and restoring stability. By tracing paper’s evolution from antiquity to the present, with an emphasis on the contributions made in Asia and the Middle East, Mark Kurlansky challenges common assumptions about technology’s influence, affirming that paper is here to stay. Paper will be the commodity history that guides us forward in the twenty-first century and illuminates our times.

Download or read book Technological Transformation in the Global Pulp and Paper Industry 1800 2018 written by Timo Särkkä and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contributed volume provides 11 illustrative case studies of technological transformation in the global pulp and paper industry from the inception of mechanical papermaking in early nineteenth century Europe until its recent developments in today’s business environment with rapidly changing market dynamics and consumer behaviour. It deals with the relationships between technology transfer, technology leadership, raw material dependence, and product variety on a global scale. The study itemises the main drivers in technology transfer that affected this process, including the availability of technology, knowledge, investments and raw materials on the one hand, and demand characteristics on the other hand, within regional, national and transnational organisational frameworks. The volume is intended as a basic introduction to the history of papermaking technology, and it is aimed at students and teachers as course material and as a handbook for professionals working in either industry, research centres or universities. It caters to graduate audiences in forestry, business, technical sciences, and history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneer Paper-Making in Berkshire: Life, Life Work and Influence of Zenas Crane The story of an enterprising young man of good character, just entering upon business life, buoyant with youthful hope and inspired by an honorable ambition, is of universal interest. It must be a very dreary and selfish heart that does not vividly sympathize with his "Dream of doing And the other dream of done, The first glow in the pursuing, The first joy in the begun, First recoil from incompletion in the face of what is won." And this, although the adventurer is only setting out upon a beaten track, and we well know the obstacles and the advantages which it may present to him.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1691 the Rittenhouse family opened a paper mill outside of Philadelphia and for the next forty years were the only paper manufacturers in America. Wilhelm Rittinghausen, later known as William Rittenhouse, was born in Mulheim, Germany and learned the paper making trade. He moved to Amsterdam at a young age and then emigrated to America with his three children in 1687. William's descendants continued to be active in the paper making business into the nineteenth century when the productivity of the mill gaveway to the new technology.
