The Paradox of Prosperity: The Leiden Booksellers’ Guild and the Distribution of Books in Early Modern Europe. New Castle, Del.: Oak Knoll Press, 2009. 275p. alk. paper, $55 (ISBN 9781584562351). LC 2008-027743. 2010-01-01 3 .pdf application/pdf 1917 88 57 The book also has a noticeably sloppier than usual occurrence of missing or misspelled words, and of other little mistakes and anomalies such as the Chris- toper/Christoffel issue mentioned above, and the incorrect founding date of 1576 for Leiden Leiden University cited on page 78. The rest of this chapter is an interesting depiction of the intersection of printers, scholars, and libraries of Leiden, more concrete and particular than some of the more speculative and table-heavy chapters that follow, and more likely to appeal to those readers with an interest in book history rather than economic theory. cache/crl-16063.pdf txt/crl-16063.txt
