History of Economic Analysis"At the time of his death in 1950, Joseph Schumpeter - one of the great economists of the first half of the 20th century - was working on his monumental History of Economic Analysis. A complete history of efforts to understand the subject of economics from ancient Greece to the present, this book is an important contribution to the history of ideas as well as to economics. Although never fully completed, it has gained recognition as a modern classic due to its broad scope and original examination of significant historical events." "Complete with a new introduction by Mark Perlman, who outlines the structure of the book and puts Schumpeter's work into current perspective. History of Economic Analysis remains a reflection of Schumpeter's diverse interest in history, philosophy, sociology, and psychology."--Publisher description. |
