| 520 | |a British society ant the British economy underwent major structural change over the period from 1700 to 1850, as people moved from agriculture and rural life to industry and towns. Unlike previous texbooks on this period, written either from a social and political standpoint, or about economics in the abstract, this book incorporate the work of social and political historians with revisionist work on British economic growth. It stresses the connections between the economy and debates over public policy, and examines the regional variations in agriculture and industry, with particular attention to the differences between England and Scotland. Much revisionist work concerns the operation of assumed national markets; the aim of this book is to show how these markets were formed, and how a national economy was created. Martin Dauton gives a clear and balanced picture of the continuity and change in the early development of the world's first industrial nation. His book will become prescribed reading for all students of eighteenth-and nineteenth-century British history, and for all economists studying the industrial revolution. | ||
