Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smoke Problem of Great Cities Much of the work which is represented by the pages of this volume has been done with a view to successive reports of a Committee for the Investigation of Atmospheric Pollution, appointed in 1912 in order to give effect to the wishes of a conference held in London in connection with a smoke-abatement exhibition in that year. The committee was purely voluntary; originally it relied to a considerable extent upon the good offices of the Lancet, which had not only facilities in regard to publication but also a laboratory which was then in charge of the late Mr. S. A. Vasey, himself a member of the committee. He was very helpful in finding a way through the difficult questions of the chemical analysis of the large bottles of dirty water which represented a month's material for investigation. The other active members of the committee were Dr. Des Voeux, treasurer of the Coal Smoke Abatement Society, Mr. J. G. Clarke, F.C.S., Dr. R. Lessing, F.C.S., all of London, Mr. J. B. C. Kershaw, of Manchester, and Bailie W. Smith, of Glasgow. Some of these names were already well-known, and have now become still better known, in connection with the smoke problem of great cities, but the question referred to the committee was limited to the investigation of the amount and nature of atmospheric pollution "for its own sake," to adopt a phrase that, by long use, has acquired a sort of scientific implication. The reader must therefore exonerate our colleagues on the committee from responsibility for anything outside the limits of purely scientific inquiry which may be found in these pages.

Download or read book The Smoke Problem at Boiler Plants written by D. T. Randall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smoke Problem at Boiler Plants: A Preliminary Report The prevention of objectionable smoke in the manufacturing and business centers of large cities is a problem that can not be easily solved. At present no city in which a considerable quantity of bituminous coal is burned is free from smoke. The cities of the East have avoided this problem by a general use of the smaller sizes of anthracite coal. For this reason it is not surprising that the greatest improvement in the methods of burning bituminous coal has been made in the Central and Western States.

Book Synopsis Imperial Heartland by : David Holland
Download or read book Imperial Heartland written by David Holland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working-class Britons played a crucial role in the pioneering settlement and integration of South Asians in imperial Britain. Using a host of new and neglected sources, Imperial Heartland revises the history of early South Asian immigration to Britain, focusing on the northern English city of Sheffield. Rather than viewing immigration through the lens of inevitable conflict, this study takes an alternative approach, situating mixed marriages and inter-racial social networks centrally within the South Asian settlement of modern Britain. Whilst acknowledging the episodic racial conflict of the early inter-war period, David Holland challenges assumptions that insurmountable barriers of race, religion and culture existed between the British working classes and non-white newcomers. Imperial Heartland closely examines the reactions of working-class natives to these young South Asian men and overturns our pre-conceptions that hostility to perceived racial or national difference was an overriding pre-occupation of working-class people during this period. Imperial Heartland therefore offers a fresh and inspiring new perspective on the social and cultural history of modern Britain.
