Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Scope and Method of Economic Science: An Address Delivered to the Economic Science and Statistics Section of the British Association at Aberdeen, 10 September, 1885

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Scope and Method of Economic Science: An Address Delivered to the Economic Science and Statistics Section of the British Association at Aberdeen, 10 September, 1885

I have chosen for the subject of the discourse, which by custom has to be delivered from the chair that I am called upon to occupy, the scope and method of economic science, and its relation to other departments of what is vaguely called 'social science.' If the abstract and academic nature of the subject, together with my own deficiencies as an expositor, should render my remarks less interesting to the audience than they have a right to expect, I trust that they will give me what indulgence they can; but, above all, that they will not anticipate a corresponding remoteness from concrete fact in the discussions that are to follow.
