Publisher's Synopsis

""Arsenic In Papers And Fabrics"" is a book written by John Kerfoot Haywood and published in 1904. The book explores the use of arsenic in the manufacturing of papers and fabrics during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Haywood provides detailed information on the history of arsenic use in these industries, including the methods used to extract arsenic from minerals and the various types of arsenic compounds used in production. He also discusses the health risks associated with exposure to arsenic, including poisoning and cancer. The book includes case studies of individuals who suffered from arsenic poisoning as a result of working in the paper and fabric industries, as well as recommendations for safer manufacturing practices. ""Arsenic In Papers And Fabrics"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the dangers of industrial practices in the early 20th century, and serves as a cautionary tale for modern manufacturing practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
