The first is a pioneering effort to quantify the economic performance of nations over the very long term. The second is to identify forces which explain the success of the rich countries, and explore the obstacles which hindered advance in regions which lagged behind. The third is to scrutinise the interaction between the rich and the rest to assess the degree to which this relationship was exploitative. The book is a monumental work of reference and a sequel to the author's Monitoring the World Economy: 1820-1992, published in 1995 and his 1998 Chinese Economic Performance in the Long Run. It is a "must" for all scholars and students of economics and economic history, as well as a mine of fascinating facts for everyone else.  aWorld economy  aEmployment  aPopulation  2ddccBK  00104070aNASSDOCbNASSDOCd2024-05-20eOverseas press India Pvt Ltdg1476.49i20-03-24l1o330.9 MAD-Wp54361r2026-02-10 12:07:11s2025-12-12v2045.00w2024-05-20yBK
