I just got done with this book and I can recommend it very strongly. It is mostly an argument against the idea that there was seemingly no real change in peoples lives with the decline of roman authority in the west that has become popular lately. It focuses on the economic side of things but it is very readable if somewhat short.

Hi Pullarius,
Thanks for the review.
Btw, would you please add you real name to your signature. Forum rules I'm afraid. I also sent you a PM to remind you.
