The purpose of the series is to make works by Japanese scholars accessible to a wider readership and to increase the knowledge of scholars in this field, particularly in relation to Asia.   This volume includes four chapters on energy and the environment of Japan, China, and Britain, and four short book reviews on recent academic works published in Japanese and English. The four chapters cover the following topics: the relationship between deforestation and the development of the silk reeling industry in a district of Nagano Prefecture (central Japan) from the 1870s to the 1900s and the subsequent shift from firewood to coal; the importance of timber supplies for the development of industry as illustrated by a case study on the supply of timber for use as rail sleepers in the Japanese national railway network during the prewar period; a methodological survey of the history of ecology and the environment in China; and an analysis of the British Smoke Nuisance Abatement Act of 1821 as a measure that incorporated the interests of politicians, landlords, and industrialists. 410 0$aMonograph Series of the Socio-Economic History Society, Japan,$x2364-2394 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aHistory 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnvironmental Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000 606 $aEconomic Growth$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W44000 606 $aHistory, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/700000 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000 607 $aChina$2fast 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 607 $aJapan$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 14$aEnvironmental Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Growth. 615 24$aHistory, general. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 676 $a333.70952 702 $aSugiyama$b S$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298471903321 996 $aEconomic History of Energy and Environment$92535918 997 $aUNINA
