Book Description

1845427769 978-1845427764 May 29, 2006
The Elgar Dictionary of Economic Quotations is a unique compendium of quotations on subjects of interest to economists and those who are generally intrigued by the social sciences. The coverage is not merely confined to economists, but includes quotes from essayists, jurists, philosophers, politicians, religious leaders, revolutionaries, scientists, and numerous other important figures who have contributed to our understanding of economic matters. Presented in a highly readable format, this impressive volume contains the thoughts and opinions of hundreds of individuals on issues relating to the economy, government, money, poverty, wealth, and a host of other important topics.

Complemented by an extensive list of references and comprehensive subject index, this dictionary will be an invaluable source of reference for anyone who wants to know the answer to the question, ‘Who said what about that?’.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"'Charles McCann's The Elgar Dictionary of Economic Quotations is a gold mine of great quotations. They have been judiciously chosen and should be a very significant aid to any economics professor. They are usually excellent in showing the general tenor of each economist's thinking and should be useful in teaching and (for those whose field of research is not the history of economic thought) useful in adding a more scholarly dimension to your research. I recommend the book wholeheartedly.' - E.K. Hunt, University of Utah, US 'Charles McCann's fascinating and delightful collection of quotations about the far-from-dismal science combines insight, enlightenment, entertainment, and provocation. It will provide economists with both occasions for reflection and a handy source of striking quotations to enliven their writing.' - Robert W. Dimand, Brock University, Canada"
