''Miners’ Lung: A History of Dust Disease in British Coal Mining'' by Arthur McIvor and Ronald Johnston is a 2007 book (ISBN 978-0-7546-3673-1) which is part of the ''Studies in Labour History'' series. The book argues that British coal mining is the "classic dangerous trade", and even those that escape the immediate dangers of the pit (mine collapses, explosions, suffocation) may be subject to years of pain, laboured breathing and eventual death. McIvor and Johnston relate the story of how the dust created by the picks, hammers, and pneumatic tools "crept deep into the lungs of the otherwise powerfully built, healthy workers, eventually incapacitating them, ruining their bodies and killing them". ==See also== *''Big Coal: The Dirty Secret Behind America's Energy Future'' (2006) *''Boys in the Pits: Child Labour in Coal Mines'' (2000) *''Coal River'' (2008) *''King Coal'' (1917) *''Moving Mountains: How One Woman and Her Community Won Justice From Big Coal'' (2007) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Miners' Lung: A History of Dust Disease in British Coal Mining」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
