The nature of fire, its symbolic significance, and its exploitation and control are examined in this fascinating study. Written in a lively style and enhanced by 117 compelling illustrations, it probes all aspects of fire, from the techniques used to extinguish oil well blazes to fire imagery in religion and poetry.
Previously known as Fire Research Institute, we are changing our name to Wildland Fire Research Institute. The Institute was founded in 1983 to benefit research in fire across the globe.
