multiple shifts; work spells and rest periods; limitation of
output; lost time and its causation; sickness and mortality;
industrial accidents and their causation; the prevention of
industrial accidents; and adoption of healthy factory conditions,
to showcase the importance of adequate lighting, heating and
ventilation, washing facilities, cloak rooms, ambulance room and a

Originally published in 1909, as part of the Cambridge Historical
Series, this book presents a detailed account of the main events
and key phases in Italian history between 1494 and 1790. The text
is divided into three main parts, with some overlaps: part one
covers 1494 to 1559; part two covers 1559 to 1700; part three
covers 1690 to 1790. The first part is treated as an introduction
to the final two parts, which discuss relatively neglected periods
of Italian history. A detailed bibliography is also included. This
is a highly readable book that will be of value to anyone with an
interest in historiography and perspectives on Italian history.
