About this book

Fertilizers, dyes, rubber and steel give Edwin E. Slosson concrete ways to explain industrial chemistry. Published in 1919, this illustrated account grew from articles intended for general readers and as supplementary material for students. Its chapters connect the transformation of matter with farming, manufacturing and the production of everyday goods. The contents range from nitrogen and soil fertility to synthetic perfumes, plastics, sugars and the electric furnace.

The discussion of rubber shows how a material's usefulness can become a question of international supply. Slosson examines tropical plantations, prices, restrictions on land ownership and the wartime pressures faced by American manufacturers. These passages place chemical development alongside trade and colonial policy. For readers interested in the history of technology, the book offers a period view of how scientific processes, raw materials and national ambitions were linked.
