History and Political Economy
This book brings together a collection of essays in honour of Peter Groenewegen, one of the most distinguished historians of economic thought. His work on a wide range of economic theorists approaches a level of near insuperability.
Eighteenth Century Economics
This collection of essays amounts to the definitive guide to eighteenth century economics and is a must for any economist's bookshelves. This book represents four decades of Peter Groenewegen's research of the eighteenth century.
Classics and Moderns in Economics
This second volume in Classics and Moderns in Economics focuses on the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, reprinting essays on classical and modern economics. This is a suitable resource for historians, students and academics involved in the history of economics.
A Soaring Eagle
Theorist, practitioner, educator and arguably the father of professional economics, Alfred Marshall's life and career have long required a full scale biography to put his work into context and reveal the extent of his influence. Peter Groenewegen's outstanding new book places the major features of Marshall's life and work within the rich institutional setting of late nineteenth and early twentieth century Britain. This biography sheds new light on Marshall's decision to study economics - after dropping mathematics, philosophy and psychology in turn - and the background to his important books, including the Principles of Economics, as well as his government advice over three decades. More than just the life of a major economist, it also deals with economics and mathematics education at Cambridge, contemporary controversies over socialism, imperialism, free trade, eugenics, religious belief, social welfare and the women's movement. As the first biography of Alfred Marshall, A Soaring Eagle contributes to the history of economics, the social sciences and education while also offering a series of insights into Victorian and Edwardian society.
Classics and Moderns in Economics Volume II
This second volume of essays on nineteenth and twentieth century economic thought, complements the first and continues the high standards of scholarship and academic rigour.
Alfred Marshall
Alfred Marshall is one of the most important figures in the history of economics. Drawing on a very wide range of sources, this is the first collection that documents a comprehensive range of material from Marshall's lifetime.
Feminism and Political Economy in Victorian England
This work examines attitudes to the woman question by writers of the Victorian era such as J.S. Mill, H. Fawcett, W.S. Jevons, H. Sidgwick, A. Marshall, the Webbs and Clara Collet. It reveals that feminism and women in political economy were more widely discussed than is sometimes supposed.
Alfred Marshall
Alfred Marshall was undoubtedly the doyen of British economics for three and a half decades, commencing in 1890, the year his Principles of Economics was first published. This succinct overview of Marshall's life and work as an economist sets his major economic contributions in perspective, by looking at his education, his travel, his teaching at Cambridge, Oxford and Bristol, his policy views as presented to government inquiries and his political and social opinions.
