First edition of this collection of essays in honour of the Nobel Prize-winning economist Richard Stone. Octavo, original cloth. Inscribed by the editor Angus Deaton on the half-title page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket.

Edited by Angus Deaton, winner of the 2015 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences, this volume features early work on the theory and measurement of consumer behavior. Featuring contributions from leading economists such as Anthony Atkinson, Nicholas Stern, John Muellbauer and Deaton himself, the book offers papers on a wide range of topics. Topics covered range from theory to econometrics, from Engel curves to labor supply and fertility, and from consumer demand in England to consumer behavior in the USSR. These papers were written and collected for this volume to honor Sir Richard Stone on the occasion of his retirement from his chair at the University of Cambridge.
