The Industrial Revolution that set up the process of industrialization was a watershed, comparable to the Neolithic revolution that incorporated both agricultural revolution and urban revolution. Industrial revolution is defined as a rapid transformation of production and transportation caused by the application of new machines that use inanimate, replacing animate, sources of energy.
