What are the advantages of industrialization?

Industrialization
is not only an engine for employment, wealth and technical skill, but an engine for the
development of technology.  Modern conveniences, medical advances, changes in lifestyle,
education, popular living locations, transportation development, machination - all of these are
examples of how industrialization has contributed to widespread and large scale changes to how
people live, and how well they live.

It is also probably the single greatest
factor for the enlargement of and migration to the cities.  Take the explosion in the US
population in the North after 1865, for example, as a direct result of rapid industrial
development.
