This is the first collection that documents a comprehensive range of material from Marshall's own lifetime. Alfred Marshall is one of the most important figures in the history of economics. Although there are several collections which draw together parts of the vast critical literature that has developed on Marshall in the twentieth century, this extensive set is the first to cover the whole of Marshall's career, and draws on a very wide range of sources, many of which are extremely rare. It includes:
* a selection of Marshall's own writings not previously reprinted
* press reviews of Marshall's writings, including reviews of both his major and minor books, and review notices of articles and addresses
* biographical material from contemporary Who's Who publications and obituaries
