sidottu
A history of one of America's earliest canals and its impact on the people of the South Carolina LowcountryCompleted in 1800, the Santee Canal provided the first inland navigation route from the Upcountry of the South Carolina Piedmont to the port of Charleston and the Atlantic Ocean. By connecting the Cooper, Santee, Congaree, and Wateree rivers, the engineered waterway transformed the lives of many in the state and affected economic development in the Southeast region of the newly formed United States. In The Santee Canal, authors Elizabeth Connor, Richard Dwight Porcher Jr., and William Robert Judd provide an authoritative and richly illustrated history of one of America's first canals. Connor, Porcher, and Judd tell a comprehensive story of the canal's origins and history. Never-before published historical plans and maps, photographs from personal archives and field research, and technical drawings enhance the text, allowing readers to appreciate the development, evolution, and effect of the Santee Canal on the land and the people of South Carolina.

Do animals work? Is it possible to work with animals without exploiting them? Might animals even be empowered through work? This provocative collection offers original answers to these questions and allows readers to think about human relationships with domestic animals beyond the well-trodden tropes of domination or animal welfare. To study animal work means to look at animals in new ways and to discover in them unsuspected skills and knowledge that open up new ethical and political horizons.

Poucher's Perfumes, Cosmetics and Soaps

Poucher's Perfumes, Cosmetics and Soaps

Walter A. Poucher

Chapman and Hall
1992
sidottu
The first edition of this work was written by W.A. Poucher in 1923. His aim was to produce a comprehensive coverage of products giving simple background theories with basic formulations and their methods of manufacture. This new edition follows in this tradition and maintains the simplicity of approach aimed at students or specialists in one discipline, with some knowledge of science, who need an introduction to cosmetic science and technology. In the 17 years since the publication of the last edition, cosmetic science has developed to such an extent that men and women working in research and the industry, specialize in different disciplines and selected product categories, therefore each chapter has been written by specialist authors. Part 1 deals with products in alphabetical order, following previous editions. In the respective chapters, an outline of the biology and function of the skin and its appendages, ie hair, teeth and nails, is given, followed by descriptions of the needs for products, their formulation and manufacture. In Part 2 there are seven chapters covering the knowledge required and the procedures to follow when marketing cosmetics. They are analytical methods, efficacy testing, emulsion theory, microbial control, legislation, safety and stability. Part 3 contains three chapters covering historical background, the perfuming of products and lastly the psychology of fragrance. This book provides a basic knowledge of "cosmetics" - a word which covers any product used to cleanse, protect or adorn the human body. It aims to serve as a valuable introduction and source of reference for all those involved in the cosmetics and toiletries industry, including suppliers of raw materials, manufacturers of finished products, R&D laboratories in industry and educational institutions as well as beauty clinics and schools.
