In response to Julien Vincent's query about Marshall's reluctance to use the expression
"industrial revolution,"  I would comment that Marshall generally did not believe in
sudden "revolutions" but in slow gradual evolutionary change.  This is especially obvious
in his writings on technology and echnological change.  See my "Biological Theory and
Technological Entrepreneurship in [Alfred] Marshall's Writings," Eastern Economic Journal,
8 (January 1982):3-13.
