About this ebook
Industrial Revolution Roots explores the multifaceted origins of modern industry, challenging simplistic narratives by examining the evolution of factory systems and mechanization in 18th-century Britain. Rather than a sudden event, the book argues that the Industrial Revolution was a gradual process driven by incremental innovations and evolving social structures. For instance, the book analyzes how the shift from the domestic system to factory production led to specialized labor and new management techniques.
The book progresses by first introducing pre-industrial production methods before delving into key inventions like the power loom and steam engine and their transformative impact. By drawing from factory records, patent applications, and contemporary accounts, the author presents a ground-up perspective on how technological innovation, social change, and economic growth were intertwined.
The book uniquely highlights the micro-level details of factory life, offering valuable insights into the foundations of contemporary business practices, supply chains, and business strategies.
