Description: Explores how ancient Athenians made economic decisions
Review Quotes:
I anticipate that this book will attain the status of being a classic, the kind of book that will be cited routinely in discussions of Greek society, cultural concerns, and, of course, economic priorities. Its abundant marshaling of evidence effectively settles the Great Debate on cultural vs. material gain in the managing of personal, family, and commercial wealth with a thoroughness that was simply not available previously.
