Some lecturers at Oxford are inclined to minimize the analogies
offered by the seventh and sixth centuries B.C. to modern industrial
conditions. In so doing they appear to me to be falling into the
commonest of modern fallacies, that of overestimating the importance
of size and numbers. For a better appreciation of the analogies see
_e.g._ Ciccotti, _Tramonto d. Schiavitù n. Mondo ant._ p. 45.
