Piero Sraffa, Unorthodox Economist (1898-1983) - A Biographical Essay (Hardcover)

A friend of Gramsci, a colleague of Keynes and a correspondent of Wittgenstein, Piero Sraffa made contributions to economics and philosophy for over 60 years. This book discusses his intellectual evolution from his student days in Italy to his extended period as librarian at the Marshall Library of Economics in Cambridge. Charting Sraffa's political development in Italy to the point where he was forced to flee Mussolini's regime, the book pays particular attention to his relationship with Gramsci, detailing both their protracted and wide-ranging philosophical discussions and his central role in preserving "The Prison Notebooks".
