Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution is a key topic in history (a sub - field of Social Science). For the first part, the Industrial Revolution was a period of significant technological and economic change. The time frame around 1760 is a well - known starting point for the Industrial Revolution in Britain. The shift from manual labor (or cottage industry) to factory production is a fundamental characteristic. And it transformed work (where and how people worked). For the global effects, increased international trade (due to mass production and need for raw materials and markets) and urbanization (as people moved to cities for factory jobs) are common global impacts.
