This collection explores emerging areas in the history of economics
and provides a valuable insight into contemporary research in the
field. The papers focus on four areas: * Science and Economics.
Authors investigate how science is perceived and how its history is
related, details early history of probability and examine
'cyberpunk' - a science fiction genre that draws heavily on modern
economic ideas * David Ricardo's contribution to international
trade theory. Texts by David Ricardo are re-examined to provide a
framework for a more consistent and coherent interpretation of
Ricardo and to demonstrate how history of economic thought
approaches can be applied to the treatment of current theory and
policy concerns * The contributions of individual economists
including Joseph A. Schumpeter, Werner Sombart and John Maynard
Keynes and a comparison of Hicks' and Lindahl's views on monetary
stability * Economics and events before Adam Smith. An
investigation into English policies toward Ireland at the time of
Cromwell's occupation is followed by explorations of the ideas of
Vincent de Gourney and debates in French economic journals in the
period 1750-1770.
