<em>The Sports Gene </em>was written by David Epstein and published in 2013.

This book supports the idea that sports success has to do with both 'nature and nurture', that both genetics and training are highly influential, but also that each of them cannot bring what the other does.

The more a person practises, the better he/she will be. But up to a point. No one can achieve something that his/her body is not biologically or genetically prepared to do. This idea is in disagreement with other authors such as Anders Ericsson, who supported that training mattered more than innate talents and that could offset genetic inclinations.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

After the fire, policies were created to implement the following reforms in the workplace:

  • Safety outputs,
  • better air circulation,
  • legislation to regulate fire prevention,
  • inspection of electrical wiring in factories and all equipment.

Explanation:

The Triangle Shirtwaist fire was a major fire that occurred in 1911. The fire killed 145 workers, mostly women, but the most shocking thing about this incident is that the fire could have been completely avoided if the company's infrastructure were better and minimum prevention and safety factors. This made many policies mandatory within the industrial sector. All of these policies aimed to transform the working environment into something safer for workers.
