This book examines the history of economic thought and of political economy over the past 250 years. It presents an accessible introduction to the lives and ideas of some of economics' most prominent theoreticians, including at least one representative of each major school of economic thought. Additionally, learning objectives, summaries, key takeaways, and revision questions are included to facilitate learning and self-assessment. The concise nature of this book makes it an easy-to-use guide to the early pioneers of political economy (Smith, Ricardo, Marx, Walras), the 20th century innovators of economics (Keynes, Schumpeter, Hayek, Friedman, Solow), or the more recent research in the discipline (Nash, Sen, Stiglitz, Krugman). Those interested in the history of economic thought will find this book to be an invaluable resource. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
