An Eponymous Dictionary of Economics is a fascinating and
accessible reference work with comprehensive coverage of the field
of economics from Adam Smith's Problem through Minkowski's Theorem
to Zellner's Estimator. Eponymy - the practice of affixing the name
of the scientist to all or part of what he/she has found - has many
interesting features but only a very few attempts have been made to
tackle the subject lexicographically in science and art. This is
the first eponymous dictionary of economics ever published in any
language. There are hundreds of eponyms and the average economist
will probably be acquainted with, let alone be able to master, a
relatively restricted number of them. The Dictionary fills this
void in a manageable volume that describes all relevant economic
eponyms. Some rare but interesting eponyms are also included, many
entries are cross-referenced and all have a succinct bibliography
for further reading. Julio Segura and Carlos RodrIguez Braun have
assembled a unique Dictionary that will be an invaluable and much
welcomed reference book for economic journalists, economists and
economic scholars at all levels of academe, and in all areas of
economics and its associated fields.
