Excerpt from Gold and Silver Weighed in the Balance If the debased refuse of twenty different dynasties could be weighed in the balance by the rupee current, could not our even more unfortunate rupees be similarly dealt with? Here is a suggestion: a rupee current in those days represented a certain (i assume ascertainable) average wage of a certain number of days' agricultural labour in Bengal. What if Adam Smith's grand idea of labour as the measure of value had been seized upon, and the rupee current, our ideal coin, been made by law and custom the symbol of t/zat quantity of labour? Had that been done, the rupee current could never have de preciated any more than it could have been clipped or otherwise falsified. Only silver rupees could be thus influenced by their increasing in number more rapidly than the people among whom they are distributed. The Bengal Land Revenue might then have been fixed as so many rupees current, and as the silver rupees increas ed in number and fell in value, more and more of them would, have been - perhaps uncomplainingly - paid by the tax-payer for the more they have depreciated, the more easy of attainment they have become. The rupee current, always the symbol of so many days' work, would at all times have indicated with u'nerring justice the exact number of depreciated silver rupees due just as it did indicate the number of clipped coins necessary to compose a given sum.

For over a century the ten-volume Dictionary of the Bible has been the definitive reference. "It is a Dictionary of the Old and New Testaments, together with the Old Testament Apocrypha, according to the Authorized and Revised English Versions, and with constant reference to the original tongues. ... Articles have been written on the names of all Persons and Places, on the Antiquities and Archaeology of the Bible, on its Ethnology, Geology, and Natural History, on Biblical Theology and Ethic, and even on the obsolete or archaic words occurring in the English Versions." James Hastings (1852-1922) was a distinguished scholar and pastor. He was founder and editor of the Expository Times and is also well known for editing the Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics, the Dictionary of Christ and the Gospels, and the Dictionary of the Apostolic Church.

This volume is dedicated to the historical context forming the background of contemporary philosophical, social and economic issues. It summarises the origins of economic activity in Eurasia and Egypt with an interpretation of the development of economics, economic thought and social thinking that takes us up to the present day. It argues that globalisation is not really new. Transpacific communications began shortly after the first states appeared in the Near East and continued intermittently during the following millennia, leaving curious traces. The book’s fundamental claim is that lessons be learnt from deep history about wealth, the nature of money, and the understanding of justice, and interpreting their importance is essential. Some of the book’s points are relevant to archaeological theory, and some are central to understanding human social organisations. Debating the claims made, and their potential significance, will interest archaeologists, historians, social scientists, and policy makers.
