The Correspondence of Alfred Marshall, Economist (The Correspondence of Alfred Marshall, Economist 3 Volume Hardback Set) (Volume 2)

Volume two of a three volume work which constitutes a comprehensive scholarly edition of the correspondence of the English economist, Alfred Marshall (1842-1924), one of the leading figures in the development of economics and the founder of the Cambridge School of Economics. The edition fills a long-standing gap in the history of economic thought with hitherto unpublished material. Each of the twelve essays in this volume focuses on some aspect or aspects of Marshall's work, life, or legacy. His magnum opus, the Principles, receives considerable attention, but the discussion is not narrowly restricted to that work- which was in any case only a portion of a larger project, never completed. v. 1. Climbing, 1868-1890 v. 2. At the summit, 1891-1902. v. 3. Towards the close, 1903-1924.
