Containing over 600 entries on British economic writers and thinkers, this Dictionary covers the period between John Duns Scotus in the fourteenth century to John Maynard Keynes and his followers in the twentieth. All the high-profile figures such as Petty, Locke, Tucker, Smith, Malthus, Ricardo, Senior, the two Mills and Marshall, appear here, but a key feature of this Dictionary is the inclusion of lesser-known figures whose work is important to the field and of great interest to modern scholarship. This latter group includes those who wrote on subjects such as currency, poverty, population and other aspects of the field of economics.
