description: A remarkable work, the Domesday Book contains detailed and comprehensive information on ownership, income, resources, and fiscal responsibilities for almost evey manor of Norman England in 1086. The bewildering and voluminous data of the Domesday Book has baffled economists in the past, butSnooks and McDonald have compiled an unequaled new interpretation of this ancient work now in its 900th anniversary. Using modern economic theory and statistical techniques, the authors reappraise the relationship between manorial revenue and resources to attain a new perspective on the Englisheconomy between 1066 and 1086.
