Product Description

An upper-level text, History of Economic Thought continues to offer a lively, accessible discussion of ideas that have shaped modern economics. The Fourth Edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect recent scholarship and research, as well as a more pointed focus on modern economic thought. The text remains a highly understandable and opinionated--but fair--presentation of the history of economic thought.

Excellent Text! 24 Dec 1999

By Earl D Short - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

An excellent overview of the history of economic thought. I used this text in my course on the history of economic thought. I highly recommend it! The authors cover, in great detail, such critical items as the preclassical areas of thought, mercantillism, Malthus, Marx, Ricardo, and the transition to Neoclassical economics. The discussion of the modern Microeconomic Theory is also a must for any fan of economics.

What everyone should know about economics 3 April 2002

By "consolidated_madison" - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

As a former student of Dr. Harry Landreth, I had the honor of learning economic theory under his expert tutelage. This book helps you appreciate and understand the theories and thinking that helped shape our world. A must for any serious student of economics; this book is hailed by academics as THE book on this subject, and I do not disagree.

Rapid & Honest Response 15 April 2011

By John G. Schwitz - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase

I highly recommend the integrity of this vendor.

I received a book that was advertised "without a mark". I was outraged, because I had recently experienced the same problem with an Amazon vendor.

CAMSDIGITAL (the vendor) explained that they were a camera store and did this transaction for a friend. They gave me the book for free.

Good for CAMSDIGITAL, supporting their friends.

Good for CAMSDIGITAL, taking responsibility and remedying a bad situation.
