Opis

Value, Capital and Growth was written as a mark of honor to Sir John Hicks on the occasion of his retirement as Drummond Professor of Political Economy at the University of Oxford. As the title implies, most of the essays are directed to the development of the three great topics of modern economic theory to which he contributed-Value, Capital, and Growth. More specifi cally, there are important papers on general equilibrium, aggregation, and index numbers- all topics of deep interest in international economics.
