Markets and Measurements in Nineteenth-Century Britain by Aashish Velkar PDF Summary

Book Description: An economic and social history of measurements in nineteenth-century British markets, showing how social conventions shaped local practices and economic institutions. This book uncovers how metrology alone failed to make 'measurements' reliable, and discusses the importance of localised practices based on political and social values in shaping trust in measurements.
