Summary: These volumes collect 85 articles and excerpts originally published between 1950 and 1998. Volume one provides an introduction to equilibrium economics, with sections on historical perspectives; criticisms of the equilibrium concept; and meaning and concepts of modern economic equilibrium theory. Volume two covers equilibrium in traditional models, and includes sections on perfectly competitive equilibrium in virtual models; non-virtual purely competitive models; and models with various forms of market imperfection. Volume three discusses some recent types of equilibrium models, including models of stationary and temporary equilibrium, underemployment, growth, rational expectations, Bayesian equilibrium; game theoretic equilibrium (with an introduction to game theory and to Nash equilibrium); and four additional models: valuation equilibrium and Pareto optimum, non-Walrasian equilibrium, learning equilibria, and market participation and sunspot equilibria.
