The use of electro-mechanical aids in industrial management
Thesis (M.B.A.)--Boston UniversityFrom that eventful day in 1750 When electrical current was first discovered and through the succeeding
years Where such famous inventions as the electric light,
the telephone, and generation of alternating current,
were brought into being, to this present age of electronic
development, the electro~echanical aids available to industrial
management have mounted in number.
Many of the basic inventions of the Nineteenth
Century, although they have been improved steadily, are
accepted as commonplace. Take for instance, the telephone
or the electric light, little thought is given to their
importance in everyday life. It takes a sudden power failure
to firmly indicate our dilemma. In the modern factory
loss of power can result in stoppage of machinery, loss of
time and costly damage. Many of the newer windowless plants
depend on artificial light for their existence; thus, loss
of light by power failure can cause accidents in addition
to the foregoing results
