Industrial Forests and Mechanical Marvels
by Teresa CribelliAn account of modernization and technological innovation in nineteenth-century Brazil that provides a distinctly Brazilian perspective. Existing scholarship on the period describes the beginnings of Brazilian modernization as a European or North American import dependent on foreign capital, transfers of technology, and philosophical inspiration. Promoters of modernization were considered few in number, derivative in their thinking, or thwarted by an entrenched slaveholding elite hostile to industrialization. Teresa Cribelli presents a more nuanced picture. Nineteenth-century Brazilians selected among the transnational flow of ideas and technologies with care and attention to the specific conditions of their tropical nation. Studying underutilized sources, Cribelli illuminates a distinctly Brazilian vision of modernization that challenges the view that Brazil, a nation dependent on slave labor for much of the nineteenth century, was merely reactive in the face of the modernization models of the North Atlantic industrializing nations.

Industrial Hygiene: Improving Worker Health through an Operational Risk Approach (Sustainable Improvements in Environment Safety and Health)
by Frances Alston Emily J. Millikin Willie PiispanenOver the past forty years, the Industrial Hygiene profession has significantly grown, and is expected to continue to grow as workplaces evolve in the development, management, and usage of hazardous materials. This growth in the profession is also related to the shift in public knowledge and perception regarding the acceptance of the health risk from activities performed at work and home. As time progresses, workplaces are being regulated to not only minimize the health imparts to the workforce, but also decrease the likelihood of negatively impacting the environment. Society has become more educated on the potential impacts on human health and the environment that hazardous materials, activities, and environments can pose. As such, there has been a noticeable decrease in the acceptance of risk by workers and the public. The accepted standard of performance for Industrial Hygiene has grown beyond compliance, but now also focuses on improving existing processes and practices to create a workplace free from work related injury and illness. <P><P>Features: <li>Shows application of risk mitigating techniques for industrial hygienists <li>Explains the definition of risk and how it applies to health and safety management <li>Defines the need for quality data management and continuous improvement in assessments <li>Describes the role of the Industrial Hygienist and risk management when responding to emergencies <P><P>Industrial Hygiene: Improving Worker Health through an Operational Risk Approach focuses on the implementation of Industrial Hygiene, using a risk-based approach, in an operational environment. The approaches and methods described in this book are designed to assist the Industrial Hygienist in managing workplace risks, including risks associated with anticipation, recognition, evaluation, and hazard control processes.
Industrial Hygiene: Improving Worker Health through an Operational Risk Approach, Second Edition (Sustainable Improvements in Environment Safety and Health)
by Frances Alston Emily MillikinSociety has become more educated on the impacts on human health and environment, and there has been a noticeable decrease in the acceptance of this risk by workers and the public. However, to ensure a higher level of worker protection, a revised approach to industrial hygiene is needed focusing on risk-reduction. This second edition of Industrial Hygiene focuses on implementation of an industrial hygiene program, using a risk-based approach, in an operational environment. Key elements of this book include balancing the art and science of industrial hygiene, risk-based industrial hygiene approaches, recognizing, evaluating, and controlling workplace hazards, medical monitoring for workers, emergency response, training, and evaluating industrial hygiene programs. Updated concepts on leadership, emergency response and monitoring, management of industrial hygiene projects, and risk communication are addressed in this edition. The book incorporates the ISO 45001 standard, “Occupational Health and Safety,” into an industrial hygiene program, which further demonstrates a risk-based approach that is internationally recognized. This is an ideal read for any student, researcher, or practitioner in the fields of occupational health and safety, industrial hygiene, risk management, and hazard control. New case studies with proposed solutions underpin the learning, and the instructor resource pack comprising PowerPoint presentations, question bank, and resources to enhance learning are available in this edition for qualified textbook adoption.
