A number of recent books on the rise of capitalism have made an impact beyond immediate circles of academics - Sven Beckert's Empire of Cotton (Penguin, 2015), How the West Came to Rule (Pluto, 2015) by Alexander Anievas and Kerem Nisancioglu. A Brief History of Commercial Capitalism, by award-winning scholar Jairus Banaji, provides a short and accessible account of this period of global transformation, shifting the gaze from Europe to the world stage.
