From the publisher

Bringing together subjects such as culture, religion, morals, politics, economics, and mentality, Perkin presents and applies a holistic concept of social history in the tradition of great historians of the past.

In this classic text of social history, Harold Perkin explores the emergence of a new form of class society in Victorian England, which differed radically from early modern society. He locates the origins of the modern English class system in the Industrial Revolution, the impact of which went beyond economy and technology, and changed the ways of living and perceptions of the English people in many ways.

Origins of Modern English Society maintains its influence as a comprehensive and integrative survey of a crucial period in the development of English society.

First line

MODERN society in Britain, as in all the 'developed' societies of East and West, stems directly from that 'vast increase of natural resources, labour, capital and enterprise' which began in Britain in the late eighteenth century and, spreading outwards from there like the ripples on a pond, is still in process of transforming the whole world.
