A fascinating economic treatise. What begins as a dry glimpse into the differences between pecuniary and industrial capital becomes a glimpse into the inner state of affairs for how social life is changing at a frantic pace during this period. The switch between the ancient way of equaivalent exchange to a wage-earning society is changing how everything works, and even the economists are struggling to find a new way of deriving meaning from this dramatically different world.
