Because economic problems, such as crashes, tend to recur and are only partially understood, it may be profitable read the work of previous generations in a collaborative spirit. Sometimes this can offer a different perspective on current preoccupations and cause us to reconsider the scope of our much criticised subject. The book gathers together earlier work by the author which appeared in various academic books and journals with the addition of six new chapters.The collection Routledge studies in the history of economics ;120.EconomicsGreat BritainHistoryNeoclassical school of economicsHistoryEconomistsGreat BritainEconomicsHistory.Neoclassical school of economicsHistory.Economists330.092/241Collard David A.121701MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910973002503321Generations of economists4482632UNINA
