Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Metric Versus the English System of Weights and Measures: Research Report Number 42, October, 1921 The National Industrial Conference Board presents herewith a report on "The Metric versus the English System of Weights and Measures." The report deals with a question of vital and timely importance, not only to the industrialist but to every citizen of the United States. Specifically the question is: "Shall the Metric System Be Substituted by Compulsion for the English System in This Country?" Agitation toward this end has been carried on during many years, and bills for the compulsory adoption of the metric system have from time to time been introduced in Congress. Bills of that nature are now before the House and Senate. Because of the importance and far-reaching economic bearings of the subject, the Conference Board has prepared this report in order that American industry might be aided by a clear presentation of facts and arguments in determining what its attitude should be towards the proposed change in systems. The report is presented in three parts. The first deals with the history and present national status of the English, metric and other systems of weights and measures. The second analyzes the application of the English and metric systems to various specialized fields, such as science, engineering, manufacturing and trade. The third sets forth in a judicial spirit, without taking a position either one way or the other, the arguments advanced by advocates of the metric and the English systems respectively, for and against the compulsory adoption of the metric system by the United States. The Board was fortunate in being guided in its work by an able Advisory Committee composed of the following men of broad business experience and scientific attainment: E. M.

Download or read book The Measure of All Things written by Ken Alder and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In June 1792, amidst the chaos of the French Revolution, two intrepid astronomers set out in opposite directions on an extraordinary journey. Starting in Paris, Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Delambre would make his way north to Dunkirk, while Pierre-François-André Méchain voyaged south to Barcelona. Their mission was to measure the world, and their findings would help define the meter as one ten-millionth of the distance between the pole and the equator—a standard that would be used “for all people, for all time.” The Measure of All Things is the astonishing tale of one of history’s greatest scientific adventures. Yet behind the public triumph of the metric system lies a secret error, one that is perpetuated in every subsequent definition of the meter. As acclaimed historian and novelist Ken Alder discovered through his research, there were only two people on the planet who knew the full extent of this error: Delambre and Méchain themselves. By turns a science history, detective tale, and human drama, The Measure of All Things describes a quest that succeeded as it failed—and continues to enlighten and inspire to this day.
Book Synopsis A Dictionary of Weights and Measures for the British Isles by : Ronald Edward Zupko
Download or read book A Dictionary of Weights and Measures for the British Isles written by Ronald Edward Zupko and published by American Philosophical Society. This book was released on 1985 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complexity of medieval & modern pre-metric weights & measures (W&M) in Britain presents an obstacle to scholarly research on Western European econ. history. The problem is: the approx. dimensions of many non-standardized measuring units, used by both the Crown & the regional & local markets, varied from time to time & from place to place; & the dimensions even of standard W&M used in any period are poorly understood. This book will clarify the confusion & bring a new focus to the field of metrology & a new understanding of the units. It includes: tables for rapid identification of all ruling English, Scottish, Irish, or Welsh sovereigns; current English Imperial, Amer. Customary, & metric units; & the basic equiv. for these W&M; & A Dict. of Brit. W&M.
Book Synopsis Encyclopaedia of Scientific Units, Weights and Measures by : François Cardarelli
Download or read book Encyclopaedia of Scientific Units, Weights and Measures written by François Cardarelli and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 869 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mankind has a fascination with measurement. Down the centuries we have produced a plethora of incompatible and duplicatory systems for measuring everything from the width of an Egyptian pyramid to the concentration of radioactivity near a nuclear reactor and the value of the fine structure constant. With the introduction first of the metric system and of its successor the Système International d'Unités (SI), the scientific community has established a standard method of measurement based on only seven core units. The Encyclopaedia of Scientific Units, Weights and Measures converts the huge variety of units from all over the world in every period of recorded history into units of the SI. Featuring: - An A - Z of conversion tables for over 10,000 units of measurements. - Tables of the fundamental constants of nature with their units. - Listings of professional societies, and national standardization bodies for easy reference. - An extensive bibliography detailing further reading on the multifarious aspects of measurement and its units. This huge work is simply a "must have" for any reference library frequented by scientists of any discipline or by those with historical interests in units of measurement such as archaeologists.
