Description
When A Revision of Demand Theory was first published in 1956, the late Harry Johnson described it as "elegant in the extreme, probably the last word there is to be said on this aspect of demand theory." This landmark work by Nobel Prize winner J.R. Hicks is now available again.
Reviews
The subject matter is of the highest degree of abstraction. Taking problems perplexed by the contortions of mathematicians, the author has applied some logical principles, expressible in simple English, and some arithmetic, or most elementary algebra, and brought to his aid a few diagrams of outstanding informativeness, and thereby brought us to his conclusions. It is a superb exercise of exposition. * The Economist *
