<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 2652378, member: 44316&quot;]Finley&#039;s book was published in 1973 and initiated a long and contentious discussion of the ancient economy. A book with interest to numismatists is</p><p>&quot;Structure and Scale in the Roman Economy&quot; (1990) by Richard Duncan-Jones. It has sections on &quot;Time and distance,&quot; &quot;Demography and manpower,&quot; &quot;Agrarian patterns,&quot; &quot;The world of cities,&quot; and &quot;Tax-payment and tax-assessment.&quot; It is in a collection of his articles, with no coin photos, most of which emphasize quantification. If you are a professional scholar it is worth buying. If not, but you have a strong inclination to learn at a deep level, you will find it very interesting and might be able to get it from a local university library.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
