As a much-needed synthesis, [the book] will serve students well.-- Speculum "A thoughtful and wide-ranging contribution to the social and economic history of the High Medieval urban milieu.-- Journal of Interdisciplinary History "Interesting and comprehensive. . . . A major accomplishment.-- Journal of Economic History "Epstein takes a fresh look at the organization of labor in medieval towns and emphasizes the predominance of a wage system within them. He offers illuminating comment on a wide range of subjects--on guilds and guild organization, on women and Jews in the work force, on the value given labor, and on the sources of disaffection. His book presents a feast of themes in medieval social history.--David Herlihy, Brown University
