Product Description

Review

“With the range, depth, and clarity of the contributions, this exceptional volume provides the reader with the best modern historical thinking on the development of economics from antiquity to the present. It should be on every economist’s bookshelf.” E. Roy Weintraub, Duke University

“This collection covers an extraordinary range of key topics in the history of economic thought and historiography. While space is at a high premium in such collective endeavors, the editors have allowed contributors ample scope to make meaningful surveys. The collection as a whole provides a splendid teaching and research resource.” Samuel Hollander, Ben–Gurion University

"What a wonderful companion; I will keep it on my shelf and refer to it often. It′s an excellent set of brief summaries of the current state of the art in the history of thought, from ancient times until today." David Colander, Middlebury College

Initial impression 17 Jan 2011
By YuriBCN
Format:Paperback
Having just received this voluminous tome, I realise I am in for a long read! I have been browsing through some of the chapters that I find initially most attractive, and am most satisfied by what I am reading. Although I have no specific economics training (trained in Business Admin) and am hoping to rely on this book as a foundation and extension of my knowledge of economics, I have found what I have read so far most understandable and clarifying.
