The Industrial Revolution

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the Industrial and Agrarian Revolution of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, this collection of lectures explores key themes such as England's economic landscape in 1760, the mercantile system, Adam Smith's theories, and the rise of pauperism alongside the future of the working classes. It highlights the significance of these historical developments while also addressing the scarcity and value of early 20th-century literature, as it aims to make classic works accessible through modern republishing efforts.
