Download or read book Inroduction to Economic Science written by Irving Fisher and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Inroduction to Economic Science The words "Elementary Principles" in the title of this book indicate the limits of its scope; the book is intended to be elementary, not advanced, and to be concerned with economic principles, not their applications. First, being elementary, it does not attempt to unravel the most difficult tangles of economic theory or to introduce controversial matter. For such studies it should be succeeded by more extensive treatises (e.g., my own: Nature of Capital arid Income, Mathematical Investigations in the Theory of Value and Prices, Purchasing Power of Money, and Rate of Interest, which follow out the same general system of thought and exposition as adopted in this book). Secondly, being devoted to principles, the book is confined to that part or aspect of economics which is now coming to be recognized as capable of scientific treatment in the sense, for instance, in which that term may be applied to physics or biology. The fundamental distinction of a scientific principle is that it is always conditional; its form of statement is: If A is true, then B is true. Science is primarily concerned with the formulation of such principles or laws. The aim of this book is to formulate some of the fundamental laws relating to economics. The method and order of treatment are not altogether traditional. The time-honored order of topics - production, exchange, distribution, consumption - has been found impracticable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economics as Moral Science investigates the problem of the ethical neutrality of "mainstream" economic theory within the context of the methodology of economics as a science. Against the conventional wisdom, the author argues that there are serious moral presuppositions to the theory, but that economics could still count as a scientific or rational form of inquiry. The basic questions addressed - the ethical implications of economics, its status as a scientific mode of theory-construction, and the relation between these factors - are absolutely fundamental ones for an understanding of contemporary economics, the philosophy of the human sciences, and our current market culture. Moreover, the study provides a thorough philosophical analysis of the critical issues at stake from the inside, from the credible perspective of a particular, but foundational economic theory - the neoclassical theory of rational choice.
