Economics 190 -- Readings

Some material has been placed on three (3) hour closed reserve in Perkins Library, including the books by Skidelsky (vol.1), Mirowski (1989) and Ingrao and Israel (1990). Additionally, four general histories of economics are on reserve: Blaug's (very clear and analytical), Spiegel's (excellent on 19thcentury material), Screpanti and Zemagni's (particularly good on non-neoclassical work), and Beaud and Dostaler's (includes interesting individual biographies of 20thcentury economists). All the required readings are on E-reserves at Perkins (for which you will need access to Adobe Acrobat Reader, available at the site). Also, you should be familiar with the resources available from the History of Economics Society WebSite which are related to this course: see the section Other Resources.
