The Co-operation of Science and Industry

Abstract

THIS little book has a special interest at the present time. The author deals with the history of science as applied to industry, and while avoiding any violent diatribes against the supineness of the British manufacturer, he points out what may be done to recover the supremacy of our trade. The employment of more scientific men in most of our works is strongly advocated, not only of the higher class of research men, but also of he class of routine analysts. The first class is, required to devise new processes along scientific lines, to discover uses and outlets for bye-products, and always to be on the look-out for methods for gaining the maximum yield of finished products at the minimum of cost.

The Co—operation of Science and Industry.

By S. R. Illingworth. Pp. 91. (London: C. Griffin and Co., Ltd., 1914.) Price 1s. 6d. net.
