Including a Symposium on Mary Morgan cover

Volume 36B of Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology features a symposium reflecting on the significance of Mary Morgan's contributions to the history and philosophy of economics. Symposium participants include guest editors Marcel Boumans and Hsiang-Ke Chao, as well as Harro Maas, Tiago Mata, Gerardo Serra, and Andrej Svorenčík. The volume also features the next installment of Charles R. McCann, Jr. and Vibha Kapuria-Foreman's continuing project on the neglected Chicago economist, Robert Franklin Hoxie.

In this collection of papers from a recent symposium, international contributors celebrate and extend the work of Mary Morgan in the history and philosophy of economics. Some subjects explored include health economics modeling, engineer economists in the Netherlands 1920-1940, the history of location theory, and economic space in colonial India. The book also includes a chapter on the work of Chicago economist Robert Franklin Hoxie. B&w historical art and illustrations are included. -- Annotation ©2018 * (protoview.com) *
