The Price for Their Pound of Flesh is the first book to explore the economic value of enslaved people through every phase of their lives--including from before birth to after death--in the American domestic slave trades. Covering the full "life cycle" (including preconception, infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, the senior years, and death), historian Daina Berry shows the lengths to which slaveholders would go to maximize profits. She draws from over ten years of research to explore how enslaved people responded to being appraised, bartered, and sold. By illuminating their lives, Berry ensures that the individuals she studies are regarded as people, not merely commodities. Analyzing the depth of this monetization of human property will change the way we think about slavery, reparations, capitalism, and nineteenth-century medical education"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000806301 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000806301 650_0 $$aSlavery$$xEconomic aspects$$zUnited States. 000806301 650_0 $$aSlave trade$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000806301 650_0 $$aSlaves$$zUnited States$$xEconomic conditions. 000806301 650_0 $$aSlaves$$zUnited States$$xSocial conditions. 000806301 650_0 $$aChild slaves$$zUnited States$$xSocial conditions. 000806301 650_0 $$aWomen slaves$$zUnited States$$xSocial conditions. 000806301 650_0 $$aOlder slaves$$zUnited States$$xSocial conditions. 000806301 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBerry, Daina Ramey.$$tPrice for their pound of flesh.$$dBoston : Beacon Press, [2017]$$z9780807047620$$w(DLC) 2016014894$$w(OCoLC)948734228 000806301 852__ $$bacq 000806301 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000806301 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1229233$$zOnline Access 000806301 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:806301$$pGLOBAL_SET 000806301 980__ $$aEBOOK 000806301 980__ $$aBIB 000806301 982__ $$aEbook 000806301 983__ $$aOnline 000806301 994__ $$a92$$bISE
