There were only a few women economists who made it to the surface
and whose voices were heard in the history of economic thought of
Adam Smith, David Ricardo, John Maynard Keynes, and Milton Friedman
- right? Wrong! In this book, distinguished economist Edith Kuiper
shows us that the history of economic thought is just that, a
his-story, by telling the herstory of economic thought from the
perspective of women economic writers and economists. Although some
of these women were well known in their time, they were excluded
from most of academic economics, and, over the past centuries,
their work has been neglected, forgotten, and thus become
invisible. Edith Kuiper introduces the reader to an amazing crowd
of female pioneers and reveals how their insights are invaluable to
understanding areas of economics ranging from production, work, and
the economics of the household, to income and wealth distribution,
consumption, public policy, and much more. This pathbreaking book
presents a whole new perspective on the development of economic
thought. It will be essential reading for all students and scholars
of the history of economic thought and feminist economics.
