Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Centuries of Shipbuilding by the Scotts at Greenock Scott (iii), born 1785, died 1874, carried on the business as John Scott and Sons, developing still further the progres sive policy of his father, who had been responsible for the works for about half a century. The Cartsdyke Yard was commenced in 1850 by Charles Cuningham Scott, and his son John, under the style of Scott and Co., and this firm is the one which has maintained the continuity of the Scotts' association with shipbuilding, john scott (iv), born 1830, died and robert sinclair scott, born 1843, died 1905, sons of Charles Cuningham Scott, were responsible for the progress for nearly forty years, and the former was created a Companion of the Bath in 1887. During their fregimc the firm took a large part in the introduction of the steamship for over-sea voyages; in the development of high steam pressures and of the multiple-expansion engine, which greatly improved the economy of the steam engine and in naval work, with its incidental advancement. They completely recon structed the Cartsdyke Works, and greatly improved what is now known as the Cartsburn Dockyard, modernising the equipment. The co-partnery was, for family reasons, registered in 1900 under the Limited Liability Company Law. Charles cuninghaii scott, son of John Scott, c.b., is now the head of the concern and Chairman of the Company (scotts' Shipbuilding and Engineering Company, Limited), and with him on the directorate are his brother robert lyons scott, C. Mumme, and James Brown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Geographies of Nineteenth-Century Science, David N. Livingstone and Charles W. J. Withers gather essays that deftly navigate the spaces of science in this significant period and reveal how each is embedded in wider systems of meaning, authority, and identity. Chapters from a distinguished range of contributors explore the places of creation, the paths of knowledge transmission and reception, and the import of exchange networks at various scales. Studies range from the inspection of the places of London science, which show how different scientific sites operated different moral and epistemic economies, to the scrutiny of the ways in which the museum space of the Smithsonian Institution and the expansive space of the American West produced science and framed geographical understanding. This volume makes clear that the science of this era varied in its constitution and reputation in relation to place and personnel, in its nature by virtue of its different epistemic practices, in its audiences, and in the ways in which it was put to work.
