The
Industrial Revolution was one of the greatest transformative moments in
history, revolutionising the way humans worked, how they ordered their
societies and how they thought about their lives all over the world. But was it
really a happy coincidence that a handful of geniuses unleashed the fruits of
their inventiveness on a grateful nation at roughly the same time? And if so
why did it happen in Britain as opposed to France or Germany or even the United
States? Told with an international perspective, PROFESSOR JEREMY BLACK explores
how a unique international position allowed 19th century Britain to become the
richest, most powerful nation on earth and to set in motion the changes that
soon swept over the planet.
