Description and Table of Contents
Description
Over a century after his death, William Stanley Jevons (1835-82) is still universally regarded as one of Britain's greatest and most original economists. Influenced by Bentham's utilitarianism, he considered economics to be a calculus of pleasure and pain. He applied the discipline of a natural scientist, giving an emphasis to mathematical economics that proved to be profoundly influential. He was the discoverer (along with Walras and Menger) of the marginal utility theory and made the greatest single contribution to the technique of constructing price statistics into index numbers. In short, Jevons led economics through a major theoretical revolution, from orthodox classical economics into the era of the neoclassical economics of Walras, Marshall and others. This collection reprints all of Jevon's most important economic works in nine volumes.
