Book Synopsis
The rapid emergence of China and India as prime locations for low-cost manufacturing has led some analysts to conclude that manufacturers in the old economies - the US, UK, Germany, and Japan - are being edged out of a profitable future. This book explores 250 years in the history of manufacturing.

"Marsh's book takes us back to basics, and looks at the challenges raised by re-industrialisation… A must-read."—Global Journal * Global Journal *
"What is so useful about Marsh's contribution in the New Industrial Revolution is that he has made an objective assessment of the evidence. And there are few people in Britain who are better equipped to do so."—Evan Davis, Financial Times -- Evan Davis * Financial Times *
