Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The contributors to this volume examine how things are sold and traded in a variety of social and cultural settings, both present and past. Bridging the disciplines of social history, cultural anthropology, and economics, the volume marks a major step in our understanding of the cultural basis of economic life and the sociology of culture.

This collection of essays is insightful but far from comprehensive, a good starting point for further discusion on commodification.
