Abstract

The industrial revolution is traditionally considered the most important break in the history of mankind since the Neolithic period. The industrial revolution marks the beginning of a self-sustained process towards modern economic growth with increasing income par capita. For a long time the first industrial nation, namely Britain, was regarded as the blue print or model for all the industrial revolutions achieved in the follower countries.
