Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the consequences of industrialization in the United States and argues that we must shift from individualist solutions to government action to solve the problems it has created. The first of these problems is accidents, and the author provides statistics that show that the United States has a far higher rate of industrial accidents than other developed nations. The second problem is illness, with the author asserting that millions of people suffer illnesses that are either caused or exacerbated by the conditions of their work and the unsanitary conditions they live in. The author provides statistics proving that this illness creates a huge economic burden on the country as a whole. The third is premature death, and the author uses data to show that preventable deaths cut the average American's life short by almost eight years. The author proposes a number of measures to address these issues, including requiring businesses to report accidents and illnesses, creating and implementing safety and sanitary regulations, and providing compensation to workers injured on the job. The author argues that although these measures represent a shift away from the individualism that has long been a part of American culture, they are necessary to solve the problems created by the country's industrial revolution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331738374_0
