G.C. Harcourt and Prue Kerr. Joan Robinson. Basingstoke, UK, and New I York, USA: Palgrave Macmillan. 2009. Pp. x + 270. ISBN-13 978-1-4039-9640-4 (hb). US$100. As its authors state, this book is an intellectual biography of Joan Robinson. Who was Joan Robinson? 'Joan Robinson' does not appear in the index of either of two of today's most widely used economics textbooks, namely N. Gregory Mankiw's Principles of Economics and Hal Varian's Intermediate Microeconomics, which in this respect are probably not atypical. So, who was Joan Robinson, and what did she do?
