During the Industrial Revolution, class relations were defined largely through the struggle to control the terms of exchange in the market.

Seller's Description:
Like New. No Dust Jacket. Size: 5x0x8; Firm and square, bright and clean, no creases, just very mildly rubbed. And so a non-text page is stamped 'damaged'. But despite such this book is in great shape and is actually in nearly new condition. Thus it looks and feels unread with contents that are crisp, fresh and tight. Now offered for sale at a special bargain price.
