Item description from seller

First edition, first printing. 8vo. viii, [4], 527, [1] pp. Original grey cloth, spine and front cover lettered in blue and red, dust jacket (bookplate of 'Gerald Kraft' to front pastedown, otherwise internally clean; light wear to extremities of jacket with some shallow chipping to tips of spine and corners, notwithstanding an excellent copy). New York, McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc.  A 'classic textbook' which 'taught the technique of linear programming to an entire generation of economists. It can still be read with profit today as one of the best intermediate texts in price theory of the entire post-war period' (Blaug). It 'included, among other things, the first turnpike theorem' (New Palgrave) and was the first work to fully 'emphasise the econometric basis of linear programming and its application to a wide range of related topics' (Gass & Assad).  Both Paul Samuelson and Robert Solow would go on to receive the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences (1970 and 1987 respectively) for their contributions to the theory of economic growth.
