First published in 1987, this seminal work on the economy of the Mughal empire now appears in its second revised and updated edition, with the addition of a new chapter on GDP.
In its extensively revised form, the work is indispensable for anyone interested in the functioning of the economy of the Mughal Empire and its possible capacities for growth. It also provides a basis of comparison with the structure of Indias colonial economy in the late nineteenth century, when a comparable range of statistics becomes available.
Shireen Moosvi is a former Professor of History, Aligarh Muslim University, has published widely on Mughal India and the economic history of colonial times.
