Gas Poisoning in Mining and Other Industries (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Gas Poisoning in Mining and Other Industries

While this volume cannot pretend to have overtaken exhaustively the views of all these authors, an honest endeavour has been made, to present the principal work which has been done.

The writers of this volume have had considerable experience, each from his own standpoint, in the matters discussed therein, and during the acquirement of that experience they felt, as doubtless have others, that a volume dealing comprehensively with industrial gas-poisoning would meet a want which has been experienced by not a few, especially with reference to accidents in mining arising from foul air and noxious gases, and to other industries in which, for various purposes, gas is now extensively employed.
