The Industrial Revolution changed our world in a way that few other
periods have done: it changed the landscape with heavy industry,
altered a national workforce, linked towns and cities with
transport and communication networks and transformed the medical
world. In utilising the plentiful supply of fossil fuels it pushed
forward locomotion, light, manufacturing and food production to
change human lifestyles forever, as urban life took over from
rural. Regular wages brought freedom of information, travel and
social mobility to many, and the world of 1800 looked vastly
different to that of 1700 as the foundations for the modern age
were laid. This book celebrates the major inventions and buildings
of the period 1700-1860: a period when science and technology began
to establish its role in modern life.
