Most economists assume that the mathematical and quantative sides of their science are relatively recent developments. Measurement, Quantification and Economic Analysis shows that this is a misconception. Its authors argue that economists have long relied on measurement and quantification as essential tools. However, problems have arisen in adapting these tools from other fields. Ultimately, the authors are sceptical about the role which measurement and quantification tools now play in contemporary economic theory.Rima, Ingrid H. is the author of 'Measurement, Quantification and Economic Analysis Numeracy in Economics' with ISBN 9780415089159 and ISBN 0415089158.
