Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book compiles historical statistics to analyze economic conditions in Britain between 1882 and 1904. The author calculated factors like wages, income, employment, and production across different sectors and industries and found substantial growth across multiple sectors, especially in manufacturing, mining, construction, and finance. However, the author warns that data is incomplete and the true scale of progress and potential issues like casual labor and poverty are likely understated. Furthermore, he urges the government to invest in better data collection to gain a more complete insight into the state of British society in the early 20th century.
