| Synopsis: |
This fascinating overview of the neglected 18th-century British economy offers a fresh perspective of 'the other Industrial Revolution.' Dr. Berg traverses the years between the pre-industrial and industrial periods, dissects the phenomena of industrial development now packaged by historians as 'protoindustrialization,' and uncovers the early origins of new technologies, new and widely variable industrial structures, and patterns of work. Moving beyond the traditional singular focus on the factory system and the cotton industry, Dr. Berg analyzes instead the ubiquity and success of workshop, artisan and domestic systems of manufacture within the entire range of textile and metal industries. |
