About this product

Product Information

Historians have long recognised the importance of child health during the Industrial Revolution, but few have explored the health of working children in any analytical detail. In this comprehensive study, Peter Kirby places the occupational health of employed children within a broad context of social, industrial and environmental change during the period 1780 to 1850. The book explores the deformities, fevers, respiratory complaints, industrial injuries and physical ill-treatment which have long been associated with child labour in the factory workplace. The result is a more nuanced picture of child health and child labour during the classic 'factory age' which raises important questions about the enduring stereotype of the health-impaired and abused industrial child. Peter Kirby is Professor of Social History and Director of the Centre for the Social History of Health and Healthcare at Glasgow Caledonian University.

    Very pleased with my purchase, which has arrived today, much earlier than expected and which was a pleasant surprise. It was well priced, included the postage, and was exactly as advertised. (Listed as new, it was still in its shrink wrapping.) I have bought from the seller before and the service has always been excellent - this purchase being no exception to that - and I’d happily buy from them again.

    Considering the item was shipped from the U.S. and arrived in 12 days I say that's pretty good. The seller dispatched very quickly after receiving my order, the item was well packed and exactly as described. I really can't fault this service. Highly recommended and will be happy to use again.
