As one of the most famous economists of the twentieth century, Paul
Anthony Samuelson revolutionized many branches of economic theory.
As a diligent student of his predecessors, he reconstructed their
economic analyses in the mathematical idiom he pioneered. Out of
Samuelson's more than eighty articles, essays, and memoirs, the
editors of this collection have selected seventeen. Twelve are
mathematical reconstructions of some of the most famous work in the
history of economic thought - work by David Hume, Francois Quesnay,
Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and others. One is a methodological essay
defending the Whig history that he was sometimes accused of
promulgating; two deal with the achievements of Joseph Schumpeter
and Denis Robertson; and two review theoretical developments of his
own time: Keynesian economics and monopolistic competition. The
collection provides readers with a sense of the depth and breadth
of Samuelson's contributions to the study of the history of
economics.
