First published in 1921, Industrial Fatigue and Efficiency aims to provide a fairly complete overview of industrial fatigue and its influence on efficiency. It brings crucial themes like fatigue and its measurement; output in relation to weekly hours of work; output and hours of work in various industries; the six- hours day and multiple shifts; work spells and rest periods; limitation of output; lost time and its causation; sickness and mortality; industrial accidents and their causation; the prevention of industrial accidents; and adoption of healthy factory conditions, to showcase the importance of adequate lighting, heating and ventilation, washing facilities, cloak rooms, ambulance room and a well found canteen as basic requirements in factories. This book is an important historical document for scholars and researchers of labour studies, labour economics, industrial studies, and political economy.

Excerpt from Fatigue and Efficiency: A Study in Industry As I turn from my laboratory to consider in what words I may fittingly introduce Miss Goldmark's admirable book, two thoughts that have often been with me come to me again. The first is, that among the many conditions of human life which may be classed as causes of misery, there is none more potent than the failure of men to live in accordance with physiological laws. Many men fail so to live because of ignorance; many for the reason that even though knowledge be present, desire is defeated by the fact that within their chosen sphere of labor they are not free agents. If this cause of misery is to be removed, there is needed first of all a knowledge of what is physiological. Like other men of science, the physiologist is too often content to spend his time in seeking, to which is added the occasional greater pleasure of finding. He tells his discoveries to his colleagues in the language common to both, but too often he does not interpret them to the people; and thus he lets the world at large remain in its ignorance and misery. Even more rarely does he venture to instruct those who shape the conditions under which multitudes of the people live. But he gladly welcomes the services of those individuals who understand physiological laws and their bearing upon human life, and are capable of bringing this knowledge convincingly home to those who are most in need of it. The second thought that comes back to me is this: Industrialism has been quick to accept the achievements of science in inanimate things, but slow to recognize the teachings of physiology with regard to the man himself. Methods and machines have been revolutionized, but the human element has not yet been eliminated. The man or woman or child is still essential to the method and the machine, and while the inanimate agent demands more and more of him, his fundamental physiological powers are probably not so very different from what they were when he built the pyramids and made papyrus.
