. As the author of several books on the history of economic thought, yours truly cannot help but applaud Murphy’s plea for the importance of studying this field.

.Johan Asplund (1937–2018) was one of Sweden’s foremost and most original sociologists. When yours truly was a young student in the 1970s, taking a few courses in sociology, one of my great sources of inspiration was Johan Asplund’s wonderful little book On Saturation Processes (1967). I believe the feeling many of us harbour towards the […]
