I shall henceforth buy all of my books from Powells (or Tattered Cover), hell with Amazon. I really want to get a copy of _The Pristine Culture of Capitalism: A Historical Essay on Old Regimes and Modern States_, which only seems available by special order. Reading _The Origin of Capitalism: A Longer View_ (the 2002 Verso edition), she keeps citing _The Pristine Culture_ in the endnotes. Any comments on _The Pristine Culture of Capitalism_ from those who have read it?
