Issue 1968/1 of Ciba Review, titled "The evolution of mills and factories." The main feature traces the origins of the factory system, with the textile industry (silk, cotton, wool) at its center. It covers the factors that prompted industrialization, the economic and social impact, and resistance to mechanization such as machine wrecking and riots. A final article treats Leonardo da Vinci's sketches of textile machinery. The issue closes with CIBA Group news, a flameproofing finish for cotton (Pyrovatex CP), a Cibacron dye note, and new product listings. It is illustrated with historical engravings, portraits and photographs.
