Synopsis

"Old Economic Insights" offers a fascinating exploration of how ancient economic practices and philosophical theories continue to shape modern financial thinking. Through meticulous analysis of primary sources from early Mesopotamian trading systems to Classical Greek philosophy, the book reveals how ancient civilizations developed sophisticated approaches to economic challenges that mirror contemporary issues.

 
The work particularly emphasizes the contributions of Aristotle, Xenophon, and Plato, whose insights on value, fair exchange, and resource management remain surprisingly relevant today. The book progresses through three distinct sections, beginning with early trading systems and monetary development, moving through Greek philosophical contributions to economic theory, and concluding with practical applications for modern challenges.

 
One of its most compelling revelations is how Aristotle's concepts of fair pricing and monetary theory parallel current microeconomic principles. Additionally, the book demonstrates how ancient societies independently developed similar solutions to economic problems across different Mediterranean and Near Eastern civilizations.

 
What sets this work apart is its unique cross-disciplinary approach, connecting economics with philosophy, politics, and social development. Written in an accessible academic style, it uses historical examples to illuminate complex economic concepts, making it valuable for both scholars and business professionals.

 
The book's examination of recovered merchant records, philosophical treatises, and legal documents provides concrete evidence that many modern economic theories are actually rediscoveries of principles well understood by ancient civilizations.

    Now a Major Sky TV Series starring Colin Firth 
    The destruction of Pan Am Flight 103 over the Scottish town of Lockerbie in December 1988 was the largest attack on Britain since World War Two. 259 passengers and 11 townsfolk of Lockerbie were murdered. Libyan Abdelbaset al-Megrahi was convicted of the crime. He maintained his innocence until his death in 2012. 
    Among the passengers was Flora, beloved daughter of Dr Jim Swire. Jim accepted American claims that Libya was responsible, but during the Lockerbie Trial he began to distrust key witnesses and supposed firm evidence. Since then it has been revealed that the USA paid millions of dollars to two central identification witnesses, and the only forensic evidence central to the prosecution has been discredited. 
    The book takes us along Dr. Swire’s journey as his initial grief and loss becomes a campaign to uncover the truth behind not only a personal tragedy but one of the modern world’s most shocking events.

    Tequila Wars - Jose Cuervo and...

    At the dawn of the twentieth century, José Cuervo inherited his family's humble distillery, La Rojeña, in the Tequila Valley. Within a decade, it would become Mexico's leading producer of tequila. But when the Mexican Revolution erupted, a charge of treason and a death threat against him by Pancho Villa forced Cuervo to flee. His disappearance turned him into an obscure, shadowy historical figure. 
     
     
     
    In Tequila Wars, award-winning author Ted Genoways restores Cuervo to his place as a key player in Mexico's formative period. Before the revolution, Cuervo's acclaim spread worldwide, and once war broke out, Cuervo remained an impresario, kingmaker, and cultural force. In the face of his own government's corruption and the nationalism of his northern neighbors, Cuervo reached American drinkers by establishing Mexico’s covert form of cross-border commerce with the United States. As the largest and most important distilleries in the Tequila Valley recognized the threat posed by Mexico's unraveling, Cuervo also lobbied for suspending normal competition in favor of "a union of tequila makers"—what would become the first Mexican cartel. 
     
     
     
    The first biography of Cuervo, Tequila Wars uncovers the history of the man who would forever change not only the business of tequila, but international relations between Mexico and the United States.
