Gott skick.
Paperback. Språk: engelska. Tydligt läst men hyfsat välhållet ex; inlagan ser fin ut. På ryggen syns ett par brytveck. Främre omslaget är lodrätt veckat i ytterkant. "With a new Epilogue for the paperback edition".
"The Wealth and Poverty of Nations is David S. Landes's acclaimed, best-selling exploration of one of the most contentious and hotly debated questions of our time: Why do some nations achieve economic success while others remain mired in poverty? The answer, as Landes definitively illustrates, is a complex interplay of cultural mores and historical circumstance. Rich with anecdotal evidence, piercing analysis, and a truly astonishing range of erudition, The Wealth and Poverty of Nations is a picture of enormous sweep and brilliant insight (Kenneth Arrow) as well as one of the most audaciously ambitious works of history in decades."
