Piero Sraffa's Political Economy
A century after his birth, this volume presents a re-assessment of the life and work of Piero Sraffa, one of the great economists of the twentieth century. From his anti-Marshallian articles of 1925 and 1926 to his classic work on the theory of capital, Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities, Sraffa's contribution to the study of economics is closely examined.
Piero Sraffa, Unorthodox Economist (1898-1983)
Piero Sraffa's work has had a lasting impact on economic theory and yet we know surprisingly little about the man behind it. This is the first intellectual biography of Sraffa and it details his working relationship with thinkers as diverse as Gramsci, Keynes, Wittgenstein as well as discussing the genesis of his major works.
Including a Symposium on New Directions in Sraffa Scholarship

It also features general research contributions from Masazumi Wakatabe, and co-authors Eugene Callahan and Andreas Hoffman.
The Keynesian Tradition
This volume examines the process by which Keynes' message got interpreted and re-interpreted and thus separated into a Left and a Right political-economic stream. Archival evidence is used to shed a fresh light on many of the controversies (and colourful characters) of the Keynesian tradition.
To Live Is to Resist
This in-depth biography of Italian intellectual Antonio Gramsci casts new light on his life and writing, emphasizing his unflagging spirit, even in the many years he spent in prison. One of the most influential political thinkers of the twentieth century, Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937) has left an indelible mark on philosophy and critical theory. His innovative work on history, society, power, and the state has influenced several generations of readers and political activists, and even shaped important developments in postcolonial thought. But Gramsci’s thinking is scattered across the thousands of notebook pages he wrote while he was imprisoned by Italy’s fascist government from 1926 unt...
Economic Theory and Economic Thought

The No-Nonsense Guide to Menopause
For nearly as long as women have been around, they have been going through menopause. It is a bodily process as old as human birth, death, and of course, menstruation. Like many normal biological events, menopause was gradually medicalized, and with the rise of pharmaceutical medicine, women and their doctors were convinced that it was an "estrogen deficiency disease" that could be treated by supplementing the body's declining estrogen levels with hormones. By 2002 hormone treatment had been on the market for more than fifty years when doctors and women alike were shocked by the results of a massive clinical trial, the Women's Health Initiative: women taking hormones had more heart attacks, ...
Angelo Sraffa
Tra i giuristi del primo Novecento, Angelo Sraffa (1865-1937) occupa una posizione di assoluto rilievo nel panorama italiano e internazionale, non soltanto per gli innovativi studi di diritto societario, fallimentare, della concorrenza e in materia di lavoro, connotati da una particolare sensibilità per i fenomeni economici, ma anche per il forte impegno quale organizzatore di imprese culturali di ampio respiro. Le sue migliori doti di stampo manageriale, sempre sorrette da una vasta e aggiornata cultura storica e letteraria, egli le mette a frutto nei lunghi anni del Rettorato in Bocconi e nella fondazione dell’Università degli Studi di Milano, come pure nella direzione ultratrentennale della Rivista di diritto commerciale e quale direttore di sezione all’Enciclopedia Italiana. Avvocato di successo e professore ordinario di diritto commerciale, amico di Lodovico Mortara, di Alfredo Rocco e di Pietro Bonfante, nel primo Dopoguerra partecipa alle commissioni legislative per la riforma del codice di commercio. Tra diritto e economia, la sua passione civile e il suo magistero scientifico contribuiscono a formare un’intera generazione di ‘allievi’.
