Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Ores and Industry in the Far East" is a comprehensive examination of the critical role that mineral resources played in the industrial and economic evolution of East Asian nations during the early 20th century. This work explores the distribution, availability, and exploitation of essential materials such as coal, iron, petroleum, and various non-ferrous metals across China, Japan, and surrounding regions. By analyzing the geological landscape of the Far East, the author investigates how the presence-or absence-of these resources influenced the development of modern industry and the trajectory of Oriental civilization.The study delves into the technical, economic, and geopolitical factors that defined the region's industrial capacity. It offers a detailed look at the challenges of mining and resource management in a period of rapid global change, providing insights into the relationship between natural wealth and national power. This work serves as a vital historical record for understanding the foundations of Asian industry and the strategic importance of mineral wealth in shaping international relations and economic policy.
