First published in 1979, The Transformation of England discusses
the creation in late eighteenth century England of the industrial
system and thereby the present world. Professor Mathias poses
questions about the nature of industrialization, social change and
historical explanation, issues that are his principal scholarly
concern. This series of essays is divided into two groups. The
first group of essays focuses upon general themes such as the
'uniqueness' in Europe of the industrial revolution, capital
formation, taxation, the growth of skills, science and technical
change, leisure and wages, and diagnoses of poverty. In the second
section, Professor Mathias focuses on the social structure in the
eighteenth century, considering the industrialization of brewing,
coinage, agriculture and the drink industries, advances in public
health and the armed forces, British and American public finance in
the War of Independence, Dr Johnson and the business world.
