'The Ancient Economy' by M I Finley (professor of ancient history university of Cambridge) Finley makes the first attempt at a systematic formulation of concepts through which the economy of the ancient Greeks and Romans can be analysed and for which modern categories of capital, labour, investment, market, credit cannot be automatically employed. The account, while not being narrative or chronological in the conventional sense, is fully historical in its attention to change and variation, and is developed through concrete detail and ample documentation. Hardback book in good condition with slight foxing in places and having its original dust jack that has some tears
