Industrial Age by Charles More

This book provides a clear account of the development of the British economy from 1750 to the present day. A particular strength of the book is the way it examines and explains areas of current historical debate. Dr More uses the latest scholarly research to cast fresh light on such familiar subjects as the causes and nature of the Industrial Revolution and the impact of railways. But he also introduces new areas of interest and controversy amongst specialists which have not yet featured largely in surveys of this kind, such as the place of women in the economy, regional differentials in economic change, and the real extent of Keynesian influence on economic policy after 1945.
