Sir Robert Harry Inglis Palgrave (1827-1919) began his career in
country banking, but through assiduous self-education became a
leading figure in economic circles. In 1877, he was made an editor
of The Economist and formulated plans with other experts to further
the general understanding of economics. The most significant result
of these plans was the present work. Similar books had already been
published in Europe, but a work in English was long overdue.
Concerned less with abstract theory and more with practical and
historical issues, Palgrave gathered a distinguished group of
international contributors, and the three volumes originally
appeared in 1894, 1896 and 1899. A landmark in publishing, the work
made the discipline of economics accessible to educated adults for
the first time. Volume 2, covering F to M, includes entries on free
trade, gilds, income tax, labour, and Malthus.
