About the author
James M. Moore is credited as the author of Plant Layout and Design, a mid-20th-century book on factory organization and industrial engineering. Library and catalog records identify him as James Mendon Moore, born in 1925, and show that this work was used as a substantial textbook on planning production space, equipment, and workflow.
He also appears as the author of The Roots of French Republicanism, a study of the republican ideal during the French Revolution and its culmination in the Constitution of 1793. That combination of titles makes him an unusual figure: a writer whose published work spans both practical industrial design and the history of political ideas.
Very little widely available biographical information could be confirmed beyond his authorship of these books, so the public record seems to preserve his work more clearly than his personal story. Even so, the range of subjects attached to his name points to a curious and versatile mind.
