"This book restates the importance of the study of the history of ideas, in the context of the writings of economists. After an initial statement, a case study involving five methodological detours is considered. This is followed by an analysis of a flawed attempt to remedy the manifest deficiencies of the static general equilibrium model." "Illustrated by discussions of methodological and historical issues, the book will be essential reading for economists, researchers and students of the history of economic thought."--BOOK JACKET.
