Forsyth examines the rise of the professional middle class in the Anglophone world from c. 1870 to 2008. She argues that the British middle class structured forms of virtue into expanding white-collar professional work, needed to drive both economic and civilizational expansion across the US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
