About this title

Synopsis

In this study, John Creedy provides an account of Edgeworth's contribution to economics and, by extension, sheds light on the wider development of neo-classical economics. The book commences with a discussion of Edgeworth's approach to economics and covers his early work on optimal distribution, his interest in the theory of exchange, and the publication of his remarkable monograph, "Mathematical Physics" (1881). The latter chapters concentrate on Edgeworth's values. Without question this book will be of interest to those working in the field of history of economic analysis as well as students of neo-classical economics.
