An earlier book in this series told the story of the Industrial Revolution which took place between the years 1760 and i860. It was a revolution resulting from the introduction of a new form of power—steam power. This text looks at another industrial revolution which has taken place in the hundred years or so since then and brought about again by the introduction of new sources of power: power from electricity, power from oil and, latest of all, power from the atom.
