520    "The distribution of food played a considerable yet 
       largely unrecognized role in the economic history of 
       Victorian and Edwardian Britain. In the midst of rapid 
       urbanization and industrialization, retail competition 
       intensified and the channels by which food made it to the 
       market became vital to the country's economic success. 
       Illustrating the pivotal importance of food distribution 
       in Britain between 1830 and 1914, The Social Cost of Cheap
       Food argues that labour exploitation in the distribution 
       system was the key to cheap food. Through an analysis of 
       labour dynamics and institutional changes in the 
       distributive sector, Sébastien Rioux demonstrates that 
       economic development and the rising living standards of 
       the working class were premised upon the growing 
       insecurity and chronic poverty of street sellers, shop 
       assistants, and small shopkeepers. Rioux reveals that food
       distribution, far from being a passive sphere of economic 
       activity, provided a dynamic space for the reduction of 
       food prices. Positing food distribution as a core element 
       of social and economic development under capitalism, The 
       Social Cost of Cheap Food reflects on the transformation 
       of the labour market and its intricate connection to the 
       history of food and society."--|cProvided by publisher.
