'Kurz and Salvadori have done researchers on Ricardo a great
service with their compilation of these essays.' - EH.Net 'Do we
have to know today what Ricardo wrote two hundred years ago? Can we
still learn from him? Of course, we can! The book edited by Heinz
D. Kurz and Neri Salvadori provides highly instructive insights
into the work and importance of David Ricardo, the ''economists'
economist'', as Paul Samuelson dubbed him.' - Frankfurter
Allgemeine Zeitung Arguably one of the most important economists
who has lived, Ricardo's impact on the economics profession is
immense. This unique and comprehensive Companion elucidates his
significance and continuing legacy. Ricardo made major
contributions to all fields of the subject, from monetary issues to
value and income distribution, from capital accumulation, technical
progress and economic growth to foreign trade and international
specialization, and from taxes to public debt. What he called the
main problem of political economy, the distribution of income and
wealth, is again back on the political and economic agenda with a
vengeance. Leading experts in the field explore his influence and
offer novel interpretations of received doctrines. The concise yet
comprehensive entries are arranged alphabetically for ease of use
with cross references and suggestions for further reading. The
Companion will serve as the standard reference work for all those
engaged in the field of classical economics. It will also be
essential reading for scholars and researchers interested in the
history of economic thought, macroeconomics and political economy.
