The Nordic Tractor traces the history of tractor production in Sweden and Finland. The story goes back over 200 years to the 19th century when the industrial revolution was sweeping across Britain, and Sweden wanted to establish their own manufacturing powerhouses.This was an exciting and fast moving time for engineering and this book traces the ups, downs and eventual demise of some of the first manufacturers working to serve the particular needs of the agricultural and forestry industries in this densely forested and mountainous region. It then looks in depth at the companies who emerged from this, who learnt from their own and others' mistakes and built on the widespread technological advances of the time to build up names for themselves in Northern parts of Europe.Today, Valtra - now owned by AGCO - stands proudly as the last remaining agricultural tractor maker in Scandinavia, but The Nordic Tractor shows where their roots lie in the establishment and history of companies such as Bolinder, Munktells, Volvo and Valmet, who all stood out as being major players in the Nordic region.Including over 100 photos, many of which have been previously unpublished, this book will appeal to those with a specific interest in Nordic tractors, Nordic engineering and general Nordic history as well as the general tractor enthusiast.

Integrative Sport and Exercise Nutrition: A Health-Feeds-Performance Perspective defines health as an underpinning requirement for active pursuit and sporting performance. By focusing on the empowerment of scientists and practitioners who support such individuals, this new textbook powerfully disseminates academic and experiential knowledge in a thoroughly applied context. The prevailing paradigm that has existed within the academic enquiry of sports nutrition has typically viewed macronutrients as ‘fuel’ for exercise endeavours. While this notion provides a basis of quantitative nutritional support, what happens when our active individual lacks adequate digestive health to assimilate these foods, and in the process creates an inflammatory tone in their body? And what happens when our aspiring athlete is genetically not suited to the diet that is prescribed by the sports nutritionist, which is based merely on the energetic needs of their sport?The underlying aim of Integrative Sport and Exercise Nutrition is to encourage sport, exercise and nutrition professionals, academics and students to embrace the physiological complexity and individuality of an exercising person. This approach highlights the need to go beyond traditional macronutrient approaches dominant in this field, and consider how our food impacts physiological health from an integrative body systems perspective. Within the context of heavy training loads, often alongside significant life stressors, such practitioners can support the robust health and performance requirements of active individuals. This cutting-edge book thereby brings together the scientific voice of academics with the ‘real-world’ experience of nutrition and exercise practitioners, and by doing so, the authors wish to stimulate a new paradigm of thought towards integrative and personalised thinking in sport and exercise.

This book examines the daily details of slave work routines and plantation agriculture in the eighteenth-century British Atlantic, focusing on case studies of large plantations in Barbados, Jamaica and Virginia. Work was the most important factor in the slaves' experience of the institution. Slaves' day-to-day work routines were shaped by plantation management strategies that drew on broader pan-Atlantic intellectual and cultural principles. Although scholars often associate the late eighteenth-century Enlightenment with the rise of notions of liberty and human rights and the dismantling of slavery, this book explores the dark side of the Enlightenment for plantation slaves. Many planters increased their slaves' workloads and employed supervisory technologies to increase labor discipline in ways that were consistent with the process of industrialization in Europe. British planters offered alternative visions of progress by embracing restrictions on freedom and seeing increasing labor discipline as central to the project of moral and economic improvement.

Fragile Empire reinterprets the rise of slavery in the early English tropics through an innovative geographic framework. It examines slavery at English sites in tropical zones across the Atlantic and Indian oceans, and argues that a variety of factors – epidemiology, slave majorities, European rivalries, and the power of indigenous polities – made the seventeenth-century English tropical empire particularly fragile, creating a model of empire in the tropics that was distinct from other English colonizations. English people across the tropics were outnumbered by their slaves. English slavery was forged in the tropics and it was increasingly marked by its permanence, inflexibility, and brutality. Early English societies were not the inevitable precursor to British imperial dominance, instead they were wrought with internal vulnerabilities and external threats from European and non-European competitors. Based on thorough archival research, Justin Roberts' important new study redefines our understanding of slavery and bound labor from a global perspective.
