This book provides a study of the forces underlying the development
of economic thought at Cambridge University during the late
nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century. The
primary lens it uses to do so is an examination of how Arthur Cecil
Pigou's thinking, heavily influenced by his predecessor, Alfred
Marshall, evolved. Aspects of Pigou's context, biography and
philosophical grounding are reconstructed and then situated within
the framework of Ludwik Fleck's philosophy of scientific knowledge,
most notably by drawing on the notions of 'thought styles' and
'thought collectives'. In this way, Knight provides a novel
contribution to the history of Pigou's economic thought.
