"This is a terrific collection! Amin and Thrift have brought
together a rich set of studies to make the case that in economic
life, calculation is cultural. Across a wonderful range of settings
– from financial exchanges to supermarkets – this
lively volume is essential reading for anyone studying economic
sociology." David Stark, University of Columbia
"Amin and Thrift's reader is an indispensable purchase for those who research and teach on the economy-culture problematic. Its 22 essays represent the wide diversity of viewpoints that have emerged this last decade or so - theoretically, topically and politically ... There really is something in here for everybody, and I think this book should be read by those wishing to know more about the culture-economy debate, as well as those familiar with its main contours ... I dare you not to buy it." Noel Castree, Cultural Geographies
