Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Metric Fallacy: And the Metric Failure in the Textile Industry This book is an outgrowth of a paper presented to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers at its December, 1902, meeting and the discussion which followed, and by permission of the Council of that Society much of the paper is here included. The points raised in the discussion have been rewritten and placed in their appropriate places. The list of countries in which it was shown in the paper that old units continue in use has been about quadrupled, while new chapters have been added on The Reasons for the Failure of Compulsory Laws, Scientific and Industrial Measurements, Scientific and Industrial Difficulties, "The Government Will Pay the Cost," The "Confusion" of our Weights and Measures, The Complications Due to a Mixture of Units, The Inaccuracy of the Meter, The Abandoned Portions of the Metric System and The Object of the Bill. Part II. on The Metric Failure in the Textile Industry has also been entirely rewritten and is believed to be the first critical anti-metric analysis of the system from the standpoint of the textile industry that has been made. The table of Continental systems of numbering spun yam has been compiled from the latest French, German and Spanish authorities and submitted to several practical French and German textile manufacturers and merchants for examination and criticism. One of them, a large dealer in yams and the proprietor of a German conditioning house, returned the list with a suggestion which has been adopted, as to the method of expressing the equivalents of each system, and added this remark: "The work is very useful and instructive." This table is believed to be the most complete of its kind ever published. Care has been taken to eliminate all systems not in actual use. The list will therefore be useful not only in showing the Continental chaos of textile weights and measures, but also in aiding the unfortunate Continental manufacturers in finding the reciprocal equivalents of the multifarious systems of yarn counts with which they are now tormented.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
