Description

Book Synopsis
This book counters the Marxist interpretation of the 1640s and the 'English Revolution'by developing our new understanding of the non-revolutionary nature of the world after 1660: it challenges the appropriateness of 'revolution' as a description of events like those of 1688, 1776 and the Industrial Revolution, emphasising instead the idea of 'rebellion'.
