Zusammenfassung

The History of Econometric Ideas covers the period from the late-nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century, illustrating how economists first learnt to harness statistical methods to measure and test the 'laws' of economics. Though scholarly, Dr Morgan's book is very accessible and does not require a high level of prior statistical knowledge.

The History of Econometric Ideas Bewertungen

'The book is so obviously valuable ... Historians of the discipline of economics will have to read and often refer to this book, which is remarkably well written and documented.' Edmond Malinvaud, The Economic Journal
'Mary Morgan has written a fascinating and readable account of the development of econometrics, free of technicality and offering a whole agenda of questions for other scholars. [It] will be a major reference work; it is also much more than that, offering a most valuable historical and interdisciplinary perspective on one of the most important developments in economics ... a splendid piece of work.' The Times Higher Education Supplement
'Dr Morgan is to be congratulated for presenting us with a memorable and tasty dinner of econometric ideas.' Arnold Zellner, Journal of Political Economy
'Morgan is a creative pioneer, and a skilled historian who has pieced together a delightful story.' David Greasley, Economic History Review
'This book is a gem in its individual chapters, but the whole is much more than the sum of those parts. The writing is level clear and restrained; the suggestions are insightful and warranted.' Neil de Marchi, Duke University
