  • Power and Public Finance at Rome, 264-49 BCE. Oxford University Press, 2017. 248p. Hardback. Series: Oxford Studies in Early Empires. This revelatory book creatively employs the methods of fiscal sociology to provide new perspectives on Rome's turbulent politics. Tan's accessible vision of a republic ruined by a predatory elite, an inattentive populace, and destabilizing concentrations of wealth is a cautionary tale that would benefit an audience of concerned scholars outside the narrow circle of ancient historians.
