Reseña del editor:
Debating the promises and limits of the "new economic history," seventeen economists and economic historians look at Great Britain, from the peak of her industrial dominance in 1840 to her eclipse by the surging economies of Germany and the United States. Their discussion brings a new methodological challenge to the field of economic history and a new interpretation of the British economy in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Originally published in 1972.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. Clean except for modest dust staining along the head edge of the page block and a short gift note on the front free endpaper (possibly signed by the editor as a presentation copy? difficult to compare with known signature because the editor changed her name in 1995). Full cloth hard cover shows a scattering of white specks, and dust jacket bears some edgewear, two closed tears at the bottom front, and some crimping at the spine heel, otherwise well-kept. xv, 439pp. Nº de ref. del artículo: 077624
