Beskrivning

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology has been and continues to be one of the most important global centres for economics. With four chapters on themes in MIT economics and 38 chapters on the lives and work of MIT economists, this book shows how economics became established at the Institute, how it produced some of the world’s best-known economists, including Paul Samuelson, Franco Modigliani and Robert Solow, and how it remains a global force for the very best in teaching and research in economics. With original contributions from a stellar cast, the volumes provide economists – especially those interested in macroeconomics and the history of economic thought – with an in-depth analysis of MIT economics.
