It aims to provide a comprehensive companion to support other reading in a discipline which employs remarkably similar terminology in Britain and the United States. Prepared by three practising economists, it contains over 1,600 entries on economic terms and theory, the history of economics and individual economists where they have made a definable contribution to contemporary economic thought.
