Reviewer comment:
This is a collection of the presentations by 9 expert participants in a
colloquium focused on study and publication of economic aspects of ancient
Middle Eastern societies (Mesopotamia) and to a lesser degree classical Greece
and Rome. The participants, led by Michael Hudson, formed a "Scholars
Conference on Ancient Near Eastern Economies' and propose to create a journal,
Ancient Economies.
