Review
Canterbery has been a productive and versatile economist, writing prolifically in a large number of fields. Whatever the subject and the audience, he writes clear and interesting prose. He is independent in his views, often heterodox but always worth considering. --James Tobin, Nobel Laureate in Economic Sciences, 1981
The Making of Economics is a highly original treatment of both the history of economic thought and of methodology ... This is a contribution to the sociology of knowledge for which the author has been widely acclaimed ... At a time when economics needs boldly critical self-appraisal his penetrative stance seems to me of central importance. --Robert Heilbroner, Author of The Worldly Philosophers
Canterbery's The Making of Economics is a major breakthrough in texts for History of Economics courses. It consistently views Economics as a developing discipline -- a discipline that is seeking new formulations and this is responsive to real world problems. It will help students understand both history and current problems and will prepare them for the future. It will not put blinders on their minds. --Hyman P Minsky, Washington University
