Review Amartya Sen: Critical Assessments of Contemporary Economists / Routledge:This new Major Work from Routledge is a five-volume collection of the key critical assessments of Amartya Sen (b. 1933), probably best known for his work on famine, human development and welfare economics. Sen is one of the few modern academics who has commanded much respect and recognition from across the intellectual spectrum. His work - for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1998 - simultaneously embraces social choice theory and economic development, thus breaking the barrier between mathematized 'high theory' and 'real world' economics. With an introduction newly written by the editor that places the collected work in its intellectual and historical context, this collection is destined to be welcomed as an invaluable resource for both reference purposes and as a contribution to the study of Amartya Sen.

Review Rise of Free Trade (Critical Concepts in the History of Economics) / Routledge:Why was Britain the first country to opt for unilateral free trade 150 years ago? On 16 May 1846, the House of Commons voted to abolish tariff protection for agriculture - the famous "repeal of the Corn Laws". Britain then adhered to her free trade policy despite both her relative economic decline and the protectionist policies of her leading trade rivals, the USA and Germany. This four volume set examines and explains the contentious issues surrounding the policy shift to free trade and the subsequent persistence of that policy. This set provides a comprehensive collection of articles including previously unpublished material on nineteenth century British trade policy and a comprehensive introduction by the editor putting the material into context.

Review The Industrial Revolutions (Eleven Volumes) / Blackwell Publishers:The Economic History Society, in association with Blackwell Publishers, announces the publication in eleven volumes of a new collection of seminal articles on the industrial revolutions worldwide. Each volume includes twenty to twenty-five articles representing the most influential writing on the subject, accompanied by editorial introductions surveying the main strands of intellectual advancement and the important conceptual advances that have characterized research on the topics under consideration. The collection forms a set of volumes on all aspects of the Industrial Revolution, providing a unique resource for libraries with collections in economics and history. Together, they give an insight into the development of research on the subject over the last 50 years. The Industrial Revolutions under discussion are the first industrial revolution - the period of the cotton mill and the steam engine, rather than electrical engineering, fine chemicals and the internal combustion engine. The Industrial Revolutions were events of such profound and continuing importance for all societies that achieving a better understanding of their nature must be a prominent aspect of the educational objectives of both individuals and institutions.

Review Joan Robinson: Writings on Economics: Seven Volume Set / Palgrave Macmillan:Joan Robinson was one of the most prominent economists of the century. She made fundamental contributions to many different areas of economic thought. She studied economics at Girton College Cambridge, graduating in 1925. During the 1930s she published three books and participated in Keynes "Circus". Her early contributions to economics were extensions of neo-classical theory, and in 1933 she introduced the theory of imperfect competition. She became an ardent follower of Keynes and produced expositions of his theory. She was one of the first economists to take Marx seriously as an economist. She became Reader in economics at Cambridge in 1956, and in 1956 she published "The Accumulation of Capital" in which she began to extend Keynes theory, in particular to take into consideration long run issues of growth and capital accumulation. Her work on growth theory in 1962, alongside Nicholas Kaldor, led to them developing the Cambridge Growth Theory. She became the first ever female Fellow of Kings College, Cambridge in 1979. [+]This collection of her writings is a testament to the depth and breadth of the impact she had on economic theory as a whole.

Review Sustainability: Critical Concepts in the Social Sciences / Routledge:This four volume set reprints vital scholarship on sustainability as concept, contested idea, and political goal. It brings together a range of articles and published papers which have influenced the course of social science thinking, and examines the links between the natural and social sciences, as well as public policies, which thinking about sustainability has helped to develop. The Editor's introduction to the volumes spells out the innovativeness and utility of the concept of sustainability as well as the difficulties in applying it in the real world. Coverage includes: * The intellectual origins of sustainability, and includes material from both classic writers and social scientists who have taken the concept into policy analysis and the social and economic theory. * Consideration of sustainable development from a number of vantage points, both in the international environment forum and in its applications to planning and policy. * Application of sustainability indicators and the development of indicators from their simple conceptual beginnings to quite refined policy instruments today, which meet different demands. * The ideas and policy discourses which have developed from sustainability, including ecological modernization, a concern with human security, deliberative democracy and environmental justice.

Review Milton Friedman: Critical Assessments / Routledge:Milton Friedman has been the prime theorist behind the emergence of monetarism and has contributed significantly to the development of monetary theory, for example, with his quantity theory of money. Moreover his advocacy has had considerable impact in winning policy makers over to monetary policies. On the faculty of the University of Chicago from 1946 to 1979, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1976. In addition, he has made important contributions to the theory of distribution, to the theory of consumption functions, and, controversially, to methodological debates. Like the other volumes of the series, this third addition presents a selection of the critical literature commenting on the life and works of a major economist. It thereby gives students of economics and economic thought immediate access to Milton Friedman's contributions and shows how his work has been received and modified by others.
