Boken tar for seg temaene hvalfangst og industriell arkeologi. Restene av hvalfangststasjonene i Sør-Georgia er i fokus. Den første halvdelen av 1900-tallet var disse stasjonene senteret for hvalfangst i Antarktis. Etter dette har de blitt forlatt og har forfalt gjennom naturlige prosesser, men de forteller stadig en historie om denne tiden. Denne boken tar for seg Sør-Georgias historie fra de første oppdagelsene, hvalfangstindustrien på 1900-tallet og utviklingen etterpå, og tar særlig opp hvordan hvalfangststasjonene var bygd og drevet. Boken er gjennomillustrert med fotografier, de fleste i farger.

Stress Monitoring in the Workplace demonstrates how well-established physiological techniques combined with new sophisticated electronic devices can be used to transfer the basic work physiology laboratory from an academic setting into the field. This approach enables researchers to monitor and study workers at the workers' places of employment under actual job conditions. Available techniques and tools for monitoring physical, mental, and environmental work stresses are described, and a series of monitoring examples is provided. Information in the book is based on the author's own experience supplemented by recent trends in the development of new technology. The book will interest industrial physicians, nurses, and physiologists; industrial health and safety personnel, work physiologists, occupational psychologists, and civilian and military human factors research groups.
