Alfred Marshall's Lectures to Women
'The book should [therefore] be in every good university library and on the book shelf of all devoted Marshall scholars.' - Peter Groenewegen, History of Economics Review The Lectures to Women given by Alfred Marshall at Cambridge in 1873, which focus on the effects of working conditions on man's character and prospects, are unique in their content and purpose. They offer insight into a radical period in Marshall's life of which relatively little is known. This new critical edition makes the Lectures, which have sometimes been referred to by Marshallian scholars, available to a wider body of historians of economic thought. Based on Mary Paley Marshall's original notes, corrected by Marshall himself, the Lectures are supplemented by Marshall's lecture outlines. Some contemporary and related texts are also published here including a paper on the future of the working classes from the same year and Marshall's exchange of articles with the trade unionist John Holmes in 1874 known as the Bee-Hive debate.
The Correspondence of Alfred Marshall, Economist
This is the second of a three-volume work constituting a comprehensive, scholarly edition of the correspondence of the English economist, Alfred Marshall (1842-1924), one of the leading figures in the development of economics and the founder of the Cambridge School of Economics. The edition fills a long-standing gap in the history of economic thought with hitherto unpublished material. Students will find it a basic resource for understanding the development of economics and other social sciences in the period since 1870. In particular, it provides much new information about Marshall's views on economic, social and political issues, his struggles to promote the teaching of economics at the University of Cambridge, and his relations with colleagues in Cambridge and elsewhere. Marshall's letters are notable for their frankness and spontaneity.
A Soaring Eagle
A rich biography of theorist, practitioner, educator, and arguably the father of professional economics, Alfred Marshall. More than just the life of this major economist, it also deals with economics and mathematics education at Cambridge, and contemporary controversies over socialism, imperialism, free trade, eugenics, religious belief, social welfare, and the women's movement.

THE ECONOMICS OF ALFRED MARSHALL
The famous British economist Alfred Marshall (1842 to 1924) contributed significantly to the subject. He thoroughly examined how supply, demand, and prices work in markets, studied how sensitive consumers and firms are to price changes, and explained how markets reach a balance. He also looked at historical and institutional influences on business and economic growth. This book contains four important works by Marshall: "The Economics of Industry" (1879, co-authored with Mary Paley Marshall), "Principles of Economics" (1890), "Industry and Trade" (1919), and "Money, Credit, and Commerce" (1923). These books helped shape the discipline and served as foundational texts for generations of economists and students. "Principles of Economics" was especially influential. However, the texts need updating to be more understandable and relevant for today's readers. This new book aims to keep the core ideas of Marshall's works while making them more concise and clear by modern standards.
