The term "revolution" has also been used to denote great changes outside the political sphere. Such revolutions are usually recognized as having transformed in [[society]], [[culture]], [[philosophy]] and [[technology]] much more than [[political system]]s; they are often known as [[social revolution]]s.<ref>Irving E. Fang, ''A History of Mass Communication: Six Information Revolutions'', Focal Press, 1997, ISBN 0240802543, [http://books.google.com/books?id=QaVfg_vdyxsC&dq=communication+technology+changed+business&as_brr=3&source=gbs_summary_s&cad=0 Google Print, p. xv]</ref> Some can be global, while others are limited to single countries. One of the classic examples of the usage of the word revolution in such context is the [[industrial revolution]] (note that such revolutions also fit the "slow revolution" definition of Tocqueville).<ref>Warwick E.
