Johns-Manville published this illustrated book as a companion to its fifty-minute sound film "Heat and Its Control," drawing on material its engineers and research scientists had gathered on heat conservation. The opening chapters trace ideas about heat from the Greek philosophers through Galileo's thermometer, Joseph Black's work on specific and latent heat, and James Watt's steam engine, with stills from the film.
