Book Description
Upson County, Georgia, has produced great Negro leaders whom God has given gifts to make a difference in the first one hundred years of history. As I researched the history of Upson County, Georgia, my soul got excited about what God did through willing vessels. My goal in this book is to encourage future generations to become available vessels to be used by God as difference makers in a changing world and to show how Negroes in Upson County thrived in the early 1800s and 1900s by investing their time, talents, and money to make the county great. Unfortunately, there are very scarce recordings of history of early Negro settlers in Upson County, and few vital statistics are available. However, as the result of painstaking effort and research as this work progressed, it is believed that this volume is as accurate as humanly possible.

Science, Technology and the British Industrial 'Decline', 1870-1970
Author: David Edgerton
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521577786
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
The place of science and technology in the British economy and society is widely seen as critical to our understanding of the British 'decline'. There is a long tradition of characterising post-1870 Britain by its lack of enthusiasm for science and by the low social status of the practitioners of technology. David Edgerton examines these assumptions, analysing the arguments for them and pointing out the different intellectual traditions from which they arise. Drawing on a wealth of statistical data, he argues that British innovation and technical training were much stronger than is generally believed, and that from 1870 to 1970 Britain's innovative record was comparable to that of Germany. This book is a comprehensive study of the history of British science and technology in relation to economic performance. It will be of interest to scientists and engineers as well as economic historians, and will be invaluable to students approaching the subject for the first time.
