Industrial Employment and Unemployment in West Yorkshire: A Statistical Review of Recent Trends (Routledge Revivals)
by J. Henry RichardsonFirst Published in 1936, Industrial Employment and Unemployment in West Yorkshire presents the trends of employment and unemployment on the basis of official statistics. West Yorkshire is in many respects a representative British industrial region. Though not enjoying as great prosperity as London and the South Midlands, it has escaped the severe depression experienced in Lancashire, South Wales, Scotland, and the North of England. The position in the predepression years, the magnitude of the depression and the course of the recovery are brought under review. These changes inevitably affect the industrial structure of an area. An estimate is made of the surplus of labour in the area and of the possibility of reabsorbing this surplus into industry. This book is an essential archival resource for scholars and researchers of British economy, labour economics, labour history and economics in general.
Industrial Energy Systems Handbook
by A.E. WilliamsIndustrial Energy Systems Handbook is a supplementary reading resource for candidates undertaking the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) Certified Industrial Energy Professional (CIEP) program. Understanding how the various industrial systems work is key to identifying savings opportunities. An overview is given of the global energy situation as at the time of publication which cements the necessity to improve energy intensive processes to become more optimized. Comprehension of opportunities to optimize an industrial energy system starts with the fundamentals of energy, electrical energy and thermal energy, and the importance of energy management systems and industrial energy audits. The main energy consuming systems in industry are covered such as steam, compressed air, motors, drives, fans, pumps, lighting, furnaces, heat exchange systems, and large scale cooling and industrial refrigeration. The instrumentation and control as well as toolkits available rounds off the handbook topics.

Industrial England, 1776-1851
by Dorothy MarshallDr Dorothy Marshall covers a vital period in English social development, during which the traditional social hierarchy of order and degree was giving place to a class society marked by the growth of a self-conscious working class. The author shows how, between 1776 and 1851, industrialization brought about major changes in the structure of society, so that by 1851 the outlines of modern urban and industrial society had been irrevocably drawn. She examines the social implications of the Industrial Revolution, referring in particular to the growth of urban society, the repercussions on the rural community and the resulting alterations in the social structure. She examines upper-, middle- and working-class opinions on such topics as religion and education, and traces the effect of the economic and social changes on the constitution and on political life. In the final chapter Dr Marshall describes the way in which the abuses of the new society brought about the demand for parliamentary legislation to deal with the injustices of the Poor Law, the factory system, and the problem of sanitation. This fascinating book was first published in 1973.
