Summary

Industrial Boom explores the Industrial Revolution in Europe, focusing on Great Britain, and its profound impact on society. This era witnessed unprecedented technological advancements, like the steam engine and mechanized textile production, which fueled economic growth and reshaped urban life. The book uniquely illustrates how the Industrial Revolution was not just about inventions, but also about the interaction between technology and existing economic institutions, leading to both progress and challenges like economic inequality.

 
The book examines the period's key inventions, the shift to factory-based wage labor, and the impact on urban environments, including population growth and social changes. Readers will gain insights into how pre-industrial Europe, the mercantile system, and the scientific revolution set the stage for this transformative period. The analysis connects historical events to contemporary issues, offering lessons applicable to sustainable development and economic restructuring.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first introduces pivotal technological advancements, then explores economic shifts, and finally investigates the dramatic effects of industrialization on urban life. By drawing on historical data, economic analyses, and sociological research, Industrial Boom provides a balanced perspective on this complex period, making it valuable for students, general readers, and policymakers alike.

    How artists make a living and how money changes art 
    It may not be the worst time in history to get paid to make art, but it certainly is the strangest. The institutions and markets that have been supporting the arts are undergoing massive changes, some even disappearing. Meanwhile the tools to make art and find audiences have never been more accessible, and there are more people than ever making art. 
    How Artists Make Money and How Money Makes Artists is an attempt to reckon with the history of money in the arts — from Titian to Taylor Swift — and how that complicated relationship is changing. David Berry analyzes past and present financial dynamics in the arts to show the practicalities of how artists make a living and how that, in turn, affects the reception and perception of artists and their work: the impacts art has on wider society, how economic realities affect aesthetic judgements of art, what kind of people are able to work as artists, and how political and cultural ideas about the nature of art affect what kind of resources are made available to it. 
    David Berry explores how art has become central to our understanding of humanity by tying art to what makes the world go round: money. Along the way, he challenges popular ideas of what constitutes a successful artistic career and considers what our treatment of artists says about us.
