The chapter on Byzantium, like the projected but missing chapters on the trade and industry of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, is, so to speak, external to the main theme of the volume, which is, like the series as a whole, primarily concerned with Western Europe. The purpose of the 'external' chapters is to illuminate the economic conditions of the areas in constant trading relation with the West. The main subject of the volume - the trade and industry of Western Europe in the Middle Ages proper - is shared by two separate chapters." -- From the preface ER -
