Lloyd Augustus Hall

Lloyd Augustus Hall’s contribution to science largely involves food preservation. Lloyd’s interest in food chemistry, a new area of chemistry, started while working at Boher Chemical Laboratory. Before his inventions, table salt (sodium chloride) was used as the major food preservative especially in preserving meat (Wilson and Jane, 34).

Following various experiments, Lloyd came up with “flash-drying” technique as an alternative to table salt preservation. The technique involved a combination of sodium nitrate crystals and nitrite and sodium chloride, which ...

This paper is the result of my research on the British dramatist, Harold Pinter. There is so much material available on Pinter that it was sometimes hard to decide exactly what to use, so I have limited my source texts to two authoritative reference books. As well as giving biographical information, I have tied to trace his contribution to the theatre, but even that was slightly problematic, since he did so much – he directed, acted and wrote for the theatre. Even if we concentrate on his writing, we are dealing potentially with a huge amount since he wrote plays, poems, ...
