MACROECONOMICS Among the most important list of publication in economics are: '' The Wealth Of Nations ''
Description: The book is usually considered to be the beginning of modern Economics . It begins with a discussion of the Industrial Revolution . Later it critiques the Mercantilism and a synthesis of the emerging economic thinking of his time. It is mostly known due to the idea of The Invisible Hand which is an often quoted phrase from the book. Its meaning is that people will unintentionally improve their community through pursuit of their own wants and needs. The Butcher, the Baker, and the Brewer provide goods and services to each other out of self-interest; the unplanned result of this division of labor is a better standard of living for all three. Importance: Topic creator, Breakthrough, Influence, Introduction '' Das Kapital ''
Description: '''''Das Kapital''''' is a political-economic treatise by Karl Marx . Marx wrote this critical analysis of Capitalism and of the Political Economy from the perspective of historical materialism, the view that history can be understood as a sequence of modes of production in which exploiting classes extract an economic surplus from exploited classes. Importance: Breakthrough, Influence '' General Theory Of Employment, Interest And Money '' Description: In this book, Keynes put forward a theory based upon the notion of Aggregate Demand to explain variations in the overall level of economic activity, such as were observed in the Great Depression . The total income in a society is defined by the sum of consumption and investment; and in a state of unemployment and unused production capacity, one can only enhance employment and total income by first increasing expenditures for either consumption or investment. Importance: Topic creator, Breakthrough, Influence MICROECONOMICS Value And Capital
Description: See '''Importance'''. Importance: The book ''built'' on Ordinal Utility and mainstreamed the now-standard distinction between the Substitution Effect and the Income Effect for an individual in Demand Theory in the 2-good case. It generalized analysis to the case of one good and all other goods, that is, the '' Composite Good ''. It aggregated individuals and businessss through demand and supply across the economy. It anticipated the Aggregation Problem , most acutely for the stock of capital goods. It introduced General Equilibrium Theory to an English-speaking audience, refined the theory, and for the first time attempted a rigorous statement of stability conditions for general equilibrium. Theory Of Games And Economic Behavior
Description: The book by the Mathematician John Von Neumann and Economist Oskar Morgenstern . It contained a mathematical theory of economic and social organization, based on a theory of games of strategy. This is now a classic work, upon which modern-day Game Theory is based. Game theory has since been widely used to analyze real-world phenomena from Arms Race s to optimal policy choices of presidential candidates, from vaccination policy to major league baseball salary negotiations. It is today established, both throughout the social sciences and in a wide range of other sciences. Importance: Topic creator, Influence MATHEMATICAL ECONOMICS Foundations Of Economic Analysis
The book showed how operationally meaningful theorems can be described with a small number of analogous methods, thus providing "a general theory of economic theories." It moved mathematics out the of appendices (as in John R. Hicks's Value And Capital )) and helped change how standard economic analysis across subjects could be done with the same mathematical methods.
