Contents:
I. Introduction -- II. Mathematical Economics -- III. Econometrics -- IV. Welfare economics and economic policy
Summary: "In this essay I have attempted to present some methodological problems of mathematical economics and econometrics, and also of operations research (econometrics of enterprise), to a public which does not necessarily consist of economists, Hence, it has been impossible to treat the whole field, and the selection of topics may be found to be one-sided. Mathematical economics is the use of mathematics in the construction of economic models. Econometrics may be defined as the utilization of mathematics, economics, and statistics in an effort to evaluate economic models empirically with the help of concrete data and to investigate the empirical support of certain economic theories." -- From the preface.
