摘要翻译：
我们用一个简单的技术变革组合模型来解释工业革命。工业革命是一次突然的技术大进步，它导致了人类财富和寿命的显著增加。在我们的模型中，技术变革是结合或修改早期的商品来生产新的商品。这一基本过程至少在20万年里都是一样的，它肯定会产生一个非常长的相对缓慢的变化周期，随后是一个组合爆炸和突然起飞的概率。因此，在我们的模型中，在财富和技术相对平静了几千年后，组合爆炸创造了工业革命的突然起飞。

英文摘要：
  We use a simple combinatorial model of technological change to explain the Industrial Revolution. The Industrial Revolution was a sudden large improvement in technology, which resulted in significant increases in human wealth and life spans. In our model, technological change is combining or modifying earlier goods to produce new goods. The underlying process, which has been the same for at least 200,000 years, was sure to produce a very long period of relatively slow change followed with probability one by a combinatorial explosion and sudden takeoff. Thus, in our model, after many millennia of relative quiescence in wealth and technology, a combinatorial explosion created the sudden takeoff of the Industrial Revolution.
