Great Britain: Landmark Publishing Ltd, 1999. Hardback. First Edition, Burning to Serve. This book explores how the industry responded to competition in one market after another, particularly from electricity. It describes the entrepreneurs, appliance makers as well as engineers. It considers the ownership of the industry, whether private, municpal or nationalised, and how this affected the response to market challenges. Was gas just a business to market profits for the investors? Was it a public service? What place was there for regulation? And as gas was potentially dangerous, who should be responsible for the safety of appliances andf installations? These and many other topics arise out of this history of marketing which covers a complete industry over almost 200 years from the first endeavours right up to the natural gas era. it is based on a doctoral thesis written following 20 years working in the industry. Written for the non-technical reader, this book will be of particular interest to students of business, marketing and social history, covering the successive transformations of a complete industry which were necessary to satisfy the changing needs of its customers from its origins right up to the present day. 256 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.) .
