Great Thinkers in Economics

Series editor: A.P. Thirlwall, University of Kent at Canterbury, UK

The famous historian E.H. Carr once said that in order to understand history it is necessary to understand the historian writing it. The same could be said of economics. Famous economists often remark that specific episodes in their lives or particular events that took place in their formative years attracted them to economics. This new series 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.
