George Stigler: Enigmatic Price Theorist of the Twentieth Century by Craig FreedmanEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2020 | 813 Pages | ISBN : 1137568143 | 23 MB
George Stigler (1911-1991) was unquestionably one of the post-war giants of the economics profession. Along with such compatriots as Milton Friedman, Aaron Director, Gary Becker and others at Chicago, he would manage to radically reshape the contours of the discipline, engineering a virtual counter-revolution against the previous post-war consensus. Stigler essentially pioneered the fields of industrial organisation and regulatory economics while contributing landmark studies to the history of economic thought. George Stigler was awarded a much-deserved Nobel Prize in 1982.
