About this product
Product Information
'It is impossible to do justice to the subtlety and detail of The Enlightened Economy; it is the product of a lifetime of research and thought, and stands as a landmark work of history' Trevor Butterworth, Wall Street Journal What made Western countries become so much wealthier than the rest of the world? What explains the huge rise in incomes during the Industrial Revolution - and why did Britain lead the way? Joel Mokyr's landmark history offers a new perspective for understanding Britain's economic transformation during the Industrial Revolution, showing how intellectual, rather than material, forces were the driving force behind it. While empire, trade, resources and other factors all played a part, it was above all the creative ferment of the Enlightenment that influenced the economic behaviour of thinkers, inventors, entrepreneurs and artisans - and took Britain into the modern era. 'Everyone interested in history should read this great work' George A. Akerlof, Nobel Laureate and Koshland Professor of Economics, University of California at Berkeley 'Lucid and elegant . . . One of the most interesting though controversial books this year' Linda Colley, BBC History, Books of the Year 'A major accomplishment' Douglass C. North, Nobel Laureate and Professor of Economics, University of Chicago 'The best introduction to the British Industrial Revolution' History Today 'A splendid achievement' Edward Glaeser, New Republic

- c***4 (201)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book arrived in perfect condition well packaged. It was a couple of days later than promised but I think this was a PO problem rather than the seller. A good price and as described. When the seller was contacted as the book had not arrived they immediately replied - could not fault. Would use this seller again.

Comms are excellent and they respond quickly and make a real effort to resolve issues. Pricing is good and descriptions accurate and fair. Postage is free so there won't be any extra packing but I've never had a problem with items damaged in transit.
