For scholars interested in economic history and families

Challenges the view of families changing due to capitalism

You will gain fresh insights into family and economy dynamics

Explore the intricate relationship between family and capitalism in England's rise to economic power.

This uncompromisingly empirical study reconstructs the public and private lives of urban business families during the period of England\'s emergence as a world economic power. Using a broad cross-section of archival sources, it tests the orthodox view that the family as an institution was transformed by capitalism and individualism.
