N2  - "This anthology, along with the editor's comprehensive introduction and extensive bibliography, is intended as both a supplementary text for students of economics and a reference for professional economists, philosophers, and other scholars. The essays, all of which deal with methodological problems in economics, range from the classic discussions by figures such as Mill, Marx, Weber, Veblen, and Keynes to more contemporary contributions to the field." -- From the back cover
