Review John A. Hobson: Critical Assessments of Leading Economists / Routledge:John Atkinson Hobson was a controversial figure in the history of economic thought. As an advocate of an apparently fallacious theory of over-saving, a critic of the orthodox theory of distribution, and a proponent of a theory of imperialism which was later taken up by Lenin, Hobson was generally condemned as a heretic by the rest of the economic establishment. His fortunes changed, rather belatedly, in 1936, when Keynes paid tribute to Hobson's work in The General Theory as anticipating his own theory that society can, under some circumstances, save too large a proportion of its income-thrift then being a vice, not a virtue. Hobson's influence was international and the impact of his writings was widespread. This collection reprints the essential scholarship on Hobson's economic, social and political thought, with helpful introductions which provide the reader with guidance and context.

Review Environmental Economics: Critical Concepts in the Environment / Routledge:Environmental economics is dedicated to the analysis of externalities (i. e. the side-effects or consequences of industrial or commercial activities that are not reflected in market prices), including the characterization of possible manifestations, appropriate policy remedies, measurement of the benefits and costs of treating externalities, and the implications for both short- and long-term societal well-being. Such analyses embrace a large number of increasingly urgent issues, including efficiency (are decisions made in such a way as to minimize costs to society?), scarcity (are we running out of key resources, including environmental attributes such as clean drinking water and clean air?), and sustainability (will future generations be able to enjoy a similar standard of living as do current generations?). In four volumes, this new Routledge Major Work brings together the best foundational and cutting-edge research on these and other vital topics to provide a conspectus of a vibrant and internationally important field. It is an essential work of reference and is destined to be valued by all scholars and students of environmental economics as a vital one-stop research and pedagogic resource.

Review Evolutionary Theory in the Social Sciences (Critical Concepts in the Social Sciences) / Routledge:This indexed set collects the most innovative and insightful works on the subject of social evolutionary thought. From its very beginnings in the nineteenth century, in key pieces by Darwin, Malthus, Marx, Veblen, and Kropotkin, these volumes extend through to the end of the 1990s, encompassing both primary sources and the influential studies that have shaped the field in the present day. The collection includes a new general introduction, as well as more focused volume introductions by the editors. Volumes are arranged thematically as follows: Volume One (edited by William M. Dugger) focuses on foundations, including the early Malthusian bias, the Darwinian insight into the ubiquitous nature of change, the nature of institutions, human nature, and multilinear evolution. Kropotkin's emphasis on mutual aid as a factor of evolution is also included. Volume Two (edited by William M. Dugger) explores the nature of evolutionary theory itself, how it differs from equilibrium theory and from Panglossian apologies for the status quo. Volume Three (edited by Howard J. Sherman) presents Marxist views of revolutionary changes in society, including the debates on the origins of the family, changes in productive relations from one society to another, and the evolution of the state. [+]Volume Four (edited by William M. Dugger) focuses on the views of the evolutionary economists (institutionalists) and presents an anti-Malthusian conclusion to the collection.
