Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of pottery manufacturing, revealing a fascinating, and often overlooked, story of industrial practices and worker health. It was written in 1899, at a time when the dangers of lead poisoning in the pottery industry were beginning to be recognized and addressed. The author, a potter himself, provides a nuanced and informed perspective on the dangers posed by lead and dust in different pottery processes. He skillfully dismantles misconceptions surrounding the industry, particularly those held by people unfamiliar with its complexities. The book examines the varied stages of pottery production, from the preparation of clay to the application of glazes and colors, highlighting the specific risks associated with each step. The author carefully analyzes the statistics of lead poisoning in the pottery industry, challenging the often simplistic and inaccurate interpretations prevalent at the time. Through meticulous analysis, the author advocates for more effective preventative measures, emphasizing the need for regulations that address the unique hazards of each stage of pottery production. He advocates for improved dust removal systems, safer handling practices for lead-based materials, and more comprehensive medical examinations for workers. The book, though written over a century ago, provides a timely and insightful look at the intersection of industrial practices, worker safety, and public health, offering a historical perspective on a problem that remains relevant today. 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 9781332208524_0
