Arthur Vogt has devoted a great deal of his scientific efforts to
both person and work of Irving Fisher. This book, written with J
nos Barta, gives an excellent impression of Fisher's great
contributions to the theory of the price index on the one hand. On
the other hand, it continues Fisher's work on this subject along
the lines which several authors drew with respect to price index
theory since Fisher's death fifty years ago.
"This is a highly instructive book on both the history and theory
of measurement in economics. It is rather a rich source of
interesting properties of more or less well known indices and
famous men, especially Irving Fisher, than a precise mathematical
text on the axiomatic foundations of indices." ("From the Foreword
by Wolfgang Eichhorn)"
