When The Question Is Steam : The Story Of Spirax - Sarco

James & James

The founder of Charterhouse was a successful entrepreneur who had flourished in the open and competitive society of Tudor England. This spirit has characterized the school, from its birth in 1611 - the year Thomas Sutton established a foundation for forty scholars and eighty brethren - and its emergence as one of Britain's leading public schools. The book tells much about the changing life of Charterhouse - from work to games and leisure and the experiences of its pupils and staff.

This book reviews the hydrological aspects of different types of disaster and considers measures required to protect people and property against such events as well as disaster prediction, forecasting and monitoring. Its publication coincides with the start of the United Nations Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction. It comprises 27 papers by experts from a wide range of countries and organizations presented at the Technical Conference convened by the World Meteorological Organization in Geneva in November 1988. The contributions are grouped into five sections covering hydrological problems of extreme floods and droughts, consequences of accidental water pollution, hydrological problems of dam and levee rupture, hydrological consequences of volcanic eruptions and hydrological consequences of earthquakes, landslides and avalanches. By drawing together work on a wide range of hydrological problems, this book is a reference source for all scientists, engineers and policymakers whose work touches on this diverse field.
