    The Ancient Economy. University of California Press, Berkeley, 1973. 222p. Paperback. Series: Sather Classical Lectures, 43. 'Professor Finley's (…) aim is a wide one; essentially it is to characterize the ancient economy. (…). Although, in my view, we must have reservations about part of Finley's argument and approach, it must be said that the book is exceptionally lucid, stimulating and learned. Finley has felt the influence of the 'Annales' school in France in the stress he gives to explanatory models, quantification studies, and the result of modern specialist techniques.' (M.W. FREDERIKSEN in The Journal of Roman Studies, 1975, p.164). (Antiquarian)  (approx. delivery time: undeliverable)
