Dewey, Pragmatism and Economic Methodology Summary

Dewey, Pragmatism and Economic Methodology by Elias Khalil

This book brings together, for the first time, philosophers of pragmatism and economists interested in methodological questions.

This unique book contains impressive contributions from a range of different perspectives and its unique nature will make it required reading for academics involved with philosophy and economics.
