The Economic Interpretation of History.Lectures Delivered in Worcester College Hall, Oxford, 1887-8

More about the book

In this landmark work, economist James E Thorold Rogers explores the ways in which economic forces have shaped human history. Delivered as a series of lectures at Oxford University in the late 19th century, this book provides a compelling case for the power of economic analysis in understanding the social and political forces that have driven humanity forward. By tracing the connections between economic developments and historical events, Rogers hoped to provide his readers with a deeper appreciation for the complex interplay of factors that shape our world.
