Great Thinkers in Economics
Series Editor A.P. Thirlwall School of Economics University of Kent Canterbury, United Kingdom

Great Thinkers in Economics is designed to illuminate the economics of some of the great historical and contemporary economists by exploring the interaction between their lives and work, and the events surrounding them.
