'Tin in Antiquity' is the first comprehensive history of the early metallurgy of tin, a mine of information on this rare, highly prized metal so vital to the developing civilization of the Bronze Age. The origins of tin have always been a mystery, but the author has unearthed archaeological evidence from all over the world to trace the tinfields used before the discovery of European deposits. He takes us on a fascinating voyage of discovery through the Ancient World, delving into mythology, and enlivening his scholarly text with quotations from the Classics and humorous anecdotes. As his name suggests, Roger Penhallurick's roots are deep in Cornwall- formerly the world's largest tin producer, and still the greatest in Europe. So it is fitting that the Cornish section comprises almost half the book, for the first time collecting together all the evidence for tin streaming between 2000 BC and AD 1000. All surviving artifacts recovered from the tin workings are illustrated and put in their archaeological context. The book is lavishly illustrated throughout, including many rare old photos, and has a full bibliography of the wealth of sources that have contributed to this work.

William L. Baldwin argues that while the structure, conduct, and performance of the world tin industry are subject to strongly competitive market forces, major intervention by international governments has exerted a controlling influence over the world tin market for the past sixty years.

This study brings together reliable and consistent data on the mining sector. It analyzes tin mining activities over the past eighty years, and includes production and price data. It provides details about the rising significance of tin mining in Bolivia, the events leading to the nationalization of the large mines in 1952, and an assessment of the performance of tin mining in the country. An attempt is made to quantify the effect of tin mining on the Bolivian economy. More specifically, the change in the level of domestic aggregate demand resulting from a change in tin output and a change in the international price of tin is measured. There is also some discussion of the fiscal impact of tin revenues and the backward and forward linkages resulting from mining activities. The report contains an analysis of the main factors, economic and institutional, that determine the price of tin. It also includes an assessment of the competitiveness of the various countries and mining methods using data for four benchmark years from 1971 to 1981.
