520 _aEditor Tilman (emeritus, public administration, U. of Nevada) provides a substantial introduction discussing the life and contributions of Veblen (1857-1919), as well as some controversies surrounding the man known to some (according to Tilman) as "a prophet with an ethical and an aesthetic message" and to others "simply as an insightful social scientist." Nevertheless the abundance of secondary literature dealing with his ideas is evidence of his impact. Collected here, in three volumes, are articles about Veblen's ideas reprinted from numerous journals (e.g.Social Science Quarterly, Cambridge Journal of Economics, American J. of Economics and Sociology, among others). Arrangement is in sections on such themes as the origins and basis of Veblen's thought, his ideas about evolutionary development and institutional change, human nature, and consumption, his ideal political economy, the role of the state in economic development, Germany and Japan, collective wealth, ecology socialism and radical economics, feminism, and higher learning in America, among other topics.
