This book is intended to present clear expositions of certain areas of economic theory with the ultimate purpose of exposing the theory to a thorough critique. The result has been that it is the essential elements of the theories that have been discussed rather than the elaborate details. There have also been excursions into the history of economic thought. In these instances, the various economists have at times been dealt a rough justice by way of representation. But then this book is concerned with a critique of economic theory rather than with its history, so that economists have been taken as representatives of certain modes of thought rather than as subjects for intellectual biography. Each essay is intended to be self-contained, but each sheds light on the others.
