In the memorable words of Ragnar Frisch, econometrics is a unification of the theoretical quantitative and the empirical quantitative approach to economic problems . Beginning to take shape in the 1930s and 1940s, econometrics is now recognized as a vital subdiscipline supported by a vast and still rapidly growing body of literature. Edited by a leading researcher in the history of econometrics, this new collection from Routledge s Critical Concepts in Economics series brings together in one mini library the best and most influential scholarship on the rise of econometrics. The set provides an authoritative one-stop resource to enable users to understand what has shaped econometrics into its current form. With a full index and comprehensive introductions to each volume, newly written by the editor, the collection also provides a synoptic view of many current key debates and issues. "
