Product Description
This book is about how the modern market world transformed the lives of remote agricultural farmers. Waters uses diverse examples to illustrate how the modern market economy captured persistent subsistence farmes in 18th century Scotland, 19th century United States, 20th century Tanzania, and indeed, the entire modern world.
