Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book incisively examines the contentious issue of temperance through the lens of Local Option campaigns in Ontario, Canada, during the late 19th century. The author meticulously presents firsthand accounts from Owen Sound and Galt, offering contrasting perspectives on the impact of this policy on social, economic, and moral dimensions. Local Option, a form of prohibition, aimed to regulate the sale of alcohol to reduce its associated ills. However, the book reveals the complexities and consequences of such measures. Through interviews with prominent citizens, police magistrates, and business owners, the author unveils the unintended effects of Local Option, including burgeoning illicit alcohol trade, increased drunkenness, and divisions within communities. By delving into the lived experiences of individuals during this period, the book sheds light on the challenges and paradoxes of implementing temperance reforms, providing valuable insights for contemporary debates on alcohol policy and its broader societal implications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book concerns the theory of machines, defining them as combinations of resistant parts with definite motions in relation to each other, aimed at performing work. The author argues that machines are distinct from other structures or constructions due to their pre-determined paths of motion, which are independent of external forces and designed to perform specific tasks. The book delves into the kinematics of machinery, the study of motion within machines, exploring concepts such as plane constrained motion, turning and sliding pairs, mechanisms, and inversions of chains. The author draws upon examples from steam engines, lathes, and other common machines to illustrate these principles. Overall, this book provides a foundational understanding of the theory and motion of machines, essential for engineers and students in the field. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
