What I find most interesting in this reading of chapter 18
is how industrialization dramatically altered the world in only a few
centuries. Industrialization changed the
entire world in less than 250 years and more than the entire recorded history
of the world. No other period has
brought upon such quick change to the entire globe. I simply find it amazing because within 250
years we have gone from an agrarian society to an industrialized society that
uses all sorts of technological applications in our daily life. We feel as if we could not live without our
mobile devices, electricity, gas, and even our cars, but to think that life was
entirely possible in this manner only a few centuries ago is astonishing for
me.
