In a century of rapid social change, the British people have experienced 2 world wars, the growth of the welfare state and the loss of Empire. This book looks at these and other issues in a comprehensive study of Britain's political, economic and social history throughout the 20th century. It is intended for students of modern British history.

This edition provides an account of the development of the British economy from 1750 to the present day - years that witnessed Britain's rise to economic greatness as the world's first industrial power as well as her long economic decline - alongside important accompanying changes.

Each aspect of the Industrial Revolution in Britain is discussed in depth, focusing on the important debates and reviewing the most recent research.
