Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Philosophy of Manufactures is a book written by Andrew Ure in 1835. It is an exposition of the scientific, moral, and commercial economy of the factory system in Great Britain during the Industrial Revolution. Ure, a Scottish chemist and professor, argues that the factory system is a necessary and beneficial development for society. He defends the use of machinery and the division of labor, claiming that they increase productivity and efficiency. Ure also addresses the moral and social implications of the factory system, arguing that it provides employment opportunities and improves the standard of living for workers. The book is a comprehensive analysis of the factory system and its impact on society, and it was influential in shaping public opinion about industrialization in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
