Ten great economists, from Marx to Keynes. --

Originally published in 1952, this seminal work is reproduced here with a new introduction by Professor Mark Perlman, a well-known Schumpeterian scholar. Largely unavailable elsewhere, the essays, written between 1910 and 1950, were primarily commemorative pieces marking the achievement of a celebrated economist. Those covered include: * Marx * Walras * Menger * Marshall * Pareto * Bohm-Bawerk * Taussig * Fisher * Mitchell * Keynes The appendix includes articles on lesser-known economists Knapp, Von Wieser and Von Bortkiewicz. The new introduction places this work in its contemporary context and highlights its importance for students unfamiliar with the original.
