Description

First published in 1998, this Routledge Revivals edition examines the profound physical and technological transformations that reshaped Glasgow's office environments between 1880 and 1914. The book investigates how growing bureaucracies in big business and government, alongside small and mid-size enterprises, adapted to rapid modernisation during this period of industrial expansion. Through detailed analysis of these structural changes, the study contextualises the lived experiences of men and women who built careers across the city's evolving office sector. This historical exploration reveals how technological innovation and organisational restructuring shaped working life, career prospects, and professional identity for office workers navigating constant change. Essential reading for anyone interested in labour history, urban development, business history, or the social dimensions of technological change during the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
