Which Book Is Recommended To Read About The Economic History Of The World?

Thursday 2 September 2010 @ 4:16 pm

The world is a big place and most books concentrate on a region or a continent; Europe, Asia, Africa, N America and so on. However, here are a few that take a broad look at economic development. I think they are all available at Amazon.
False Economy: A Surprising Economic History of the World; Alan Beattie (partly humorous)
A Farewell to Alms: A Brief Economic History of the World (Princeton Economic History of the Western World); Gregory Clark (takes a cultural view; the poor have only themselves to blame etc)
A Concise Economic History of the World: From Paleolithic Times to the Present; Rondo Cameron & Larry Neal (not concise at all but nice reading)
The Palgrave Encyclopedia of World Economic History: Since 1750; Graham Bannock & R.E Baxter (yeah - an encyclopedia - enormous but valuable to dip into - could be expensive)
OK?

Monday 30 August 2010 @ 4:15 pm

MLK was fighting for unions for mostly black trash men when he was killed. Glenn Beck hates unions, and is not for the working poor. Nor did Glenn Beck speak about Civil Rights at the monument. So what was that all about?
