Abstract

“Since the UK industrial revolution, it has been taken for granted — in Britain — that the quality of British manufactured goods is high. If this were ever true, the situation has now changed radically.” “There was a time when a British company's word would be a guarantee that the goods were to specification. These days it's not enough.”.
