Synopsis
This book investigates the discrepancies and similarities between the prolific re waste in the USA and the far lower rates of res in Europe. The author, an early 20th century fire safety advocate, meticulously examines the different construction and safety standards employed on either side of the Atlantic, bringing into focus the economic consequences of these diverging approaches. The author concludes that the USA could dramatically reduce res and the huge related nancial losses by enacting and enforcing tighter building codes and re prevention regulations, while also promoting greater individual responsibility and public awareness of re safety issues.
