Reviews

'It is a good reminder of how much we have learnt from him.'
Times Higher Education Supplement
`magisterial with plentiful supply of new terminology'
Economica
clearly destined to take on a special significance to historians of thought as the final contribution of one of the most influential economists of the twentieth century ... The completed volume achieves everything that Hicks' admirers could have hoped for, and represents a remarkable accomplishment for a scholar at the end of a long and uniquely distinguished career spanning more than sixty years.'
