George Westinghouse (1846-1914) was an inventive engineer, successful industrialist, and, according to this new biography by Skrabec (business, Findlay U.), a man whose kind character engendered a fondness among his employees that could not even hope to be rivaled among such contemporaries as Andrew Carnegie and perhaps provided the model for "capitalism with a heart."
