England's economy between 1050 and 1550 mirrored that of much of continental Europe in its growing dependence upon trade over both short distances and long. The essays in this collection are the fruit of forty years of research into the complex and interrelated issues involved. Describing this change can be achieved in part through quantitative indices such as the number and size of towns markets and fairs and the volume of monetary circulation. A full account also requires a discussion of widespread changes of work experience customary practices and moral values as households became more dependent upon markets. In addition the evidence of transformative commercial growth in the medieval period gives rise to numerous questions concerning its relationship to more modern times.
