It is only during the 20th century that it has become possible to
pursue a career as an economist. The dramatic expansion of higher
education and the growing numbers of economists in public service
and in the private sector has created a demand for a thoroughly
professional economics. In this text, 14 economists describe their
early introduction to the study of economics and their contribution
to the development of academic economics in Britain. With
experience covering a period stretching from the mid 1920s to the
late 1960s, many of the contributors not only provide an insight
into the role of university disciplines in the education system but
describe their experience in wartime administration, or as
government advisers. In addition to the 14 economists, Richard
Lipsey, the founding vice-chancellor of Essex University describes
the inspiration and planning behind the creation of one of the most
successful of the post-war universities.
