Synopsis
Thorstein Veblen has made an immeasurable impact on the development of economics. His legacy has been to challenge orthodox thinking and inspire the institutionalist and evolutionary school of thought. In this book, a distinguished group of contributors analyses the impact, a century later, of Veblen's 1898 challenge to economics.
The authors examine the contribution of Veblen and some of his disciples to heterodox economics. They also reassess other contemporaneous discussions and contributions by other authors - Mitchell, Ayres, Commons, Keynes, Schumpeter, Tinbergen, Frisch - and present an overview of the state of the art in evolutionary economics.

Review
. . . the book contains some important essays that may advance the cause of study of institutional economics. -- - Ray Petridis, Journal of the History of Economic Thought, Vol. 24 No. 1, 2002
: 'This impressive collection demonstrates the vibrant prospects of an evolutionary economics but also its problems. Both the strength and the limitations of Veblen's original forays are made clear. The strength of the collection resides in its treatments of important specific areas, such as the firm, rationality, the role and limits of knowledge, the diversity of economic institutions, nonlinear relationships, the relation of institutions to technical processes, the nature of an evolutionary economics, and capitalism as a system. Also impressive is the array of contributors, several new to the topic.' - Warren J. Samuels, Michigan State University -- - Warren J. Samuels, Michigan State University
