The English Capital Market
First Published in 1968. If this book aimed at a descriptive account of the detailed phenomena of the Money Market, it would necessarily be concerned mainly with the manner in which the market was adjusting its operations to the special disturbances arising from the war, and would deal principally with such matters as the abolition of time dealings on the Stock Exchanges, the influence of public finance on monetary conditions and the prospects of a return to an effective gold standard. But that is not its object. Its main purpose is one not of description but of interpretation. It attempts to trace the nature of the economies which the market effects as part of the organization of production, and to express those economies in terms of economic welfare.
The Palgrave Companion to Cambridge Economics
Cambridge University has and continues to be one of the most important centres for economics. With nine chapters on themes in Cambridge economics and over 40 chapters on the lives and work of Cambridge economists, this volume shows how economics became established at the university, how it produced some of the world's best-known economists, including John Maynard Keynes and Alfred Marshall, plus Nobel Prize winners, such as Richard Stone and James Mirrlees, and how it remains a global force for the very best in teaching and research in economics. With original contributions from a stellar cast, this volume provides economists – especially those interested in macroeconomics and the history of economic thought – with the first in-depth analysis of Cambridge economics.
