Publisher Description
Peter Coleman, Selwyn Cornish and Peter Drake. Arndt's Story. The Life of an Australian Economist. Canberra: ANU Press. 2007. Pp. xviii + 338. ISBN 9780731538102. A$45. Much of the best economists first studied other subjects and somehow turned to economics later. Marshall, Keynes and Hicks started with Mathematics, Tinbergen with Physics, Kalecki with Engineering, Colin Clark and Rosenstein-Rodan with Chemistry, Hayek with Law. But to embark on a career as an economist with little formal training in Economics and virtually none in Mathematics is not sensible. (Arndt 1985, p. 1)
