Excerpt from Refrigeration, Cold Storage and Ice-Making: A Practical Treatise on the Art and Science of Refrigeration, With Which Is Incorporated Refrigerating and Ice-Making Machinery The conservation Of meat and other food stuffs by the latter method, which is now so extensively used, is that with which the author is here solely concerned. By means Of refrigeration or thermal control meat can now be transported round the world whilst retaining its original freshness. And fish, milk, butter, eggs, and fruits Of almost every variety can also be preserved and transported in good condition. In fact, as stated in the Preface to the first edition Of this book, refrigeration is a subject Of great and daily increasing interest, and the field Of usefulness Of the art is continually widening. When the author produced, in 1895, his smaller work entitled Refrigerating and ice-making Machinery, the literature dealing specifically with the subject was of a very limited, and chiefly of a scattered description, but at the present time there are a number of books published, and the periodical literature has also been largely augmented.
