Economic thinking, just like any other school of thought, has had its own evolution over the years. The Trend of Economic Thinking: Essays on Political Economists and Economic History is a collection of essays from renown economic scientist F. A. Hayek chronicling the ideas of one of the best economic minds of the twentieth century. His essays discuss the past history of economics from the times of Adam Smith, to his own contemporary times where capitalism and communism were at each other's throats at every front. A must read for any economics student or simply one who wants a better grasp of how money works in the world, The Trend of Economic Thinking is a fine choice in any regard.

Reseña del editor:

In The Trend of Economic Thinking Hayek presents many of the figures that influenced the development of his economic thought. The articles range from well-known economists such as Mandeville, Hume, Smith, and Bastiat, to lesser-known figures such as Dupuit and Gossen, showing the breadth of Hayek's study of the history of economic thought.

F. A. Hayek (1899?1992) was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 1974 and the Medal of Freedom in 1991 and was one of the leading Austrian economists and political philosophers of the twentieth century.

W. W. Bartley, III (1934?1990) was a Professor of Philosophy and a Senior Research Fellow at Stanford University and an author.

Stephen Kresge was the General Editor of The Collected Works of F. A. Hayek until his retirement in 2002.
