The Second Phase of the Industrial Revolution
The first phase of the Industrial Revolution had largely been forged from iron, powered by steam engines, and driven by the British textile industry.

Factories powered by electricity used innovative processes to turn out new products.
Changes in business organization contributed to the rise of giant companies.
As the 20th century dawned, the second Industrial Revolution transformed the economies of the Western world.
