Author Description

The award-winning The New Palgrave Dictionary of Economics, 2nd edition consists of over 1,900 articles written by leading figures in the field including Nobel prize winners. This scholarly reference work is written on the level of postgraduate or advanced undergraduate, as the text employs a fair amount of economic and mathematical terminology. The articles are well beyond textbook summaries, but not quite as comprehensive as those in various single-subject handbooks. Includes brief biographies of noted economists.
