"The present volume is the first of a group of three designed to cover the economic history of the western world during and since the Industrial Revolution. As the main theme of the volume is the rise and development of the modern industrial system, and as that system arose and developed at different times in different countries, the editors did not set these volumes within any precise terminal dates. But broadly speaking most of the essays in this and the subsequent two volumes will be found to deal with the economic history of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries." -- From the preface.
