General Theory of Economic Evolution

The burgeoning field of evolutionary economics has developed as result of the traditional failure of the discipline to explain certain phenomena that impact greatly on the economy: evolution, institutions, knowledge, and technology. This is the first textbook to be developed in order to fill this gap and is written by Kurt Dopfer and one of the world's brightest young economists, Jason Potts (recent joint winner of the Schumpeter Prize). The text will be interlaced with a wealth of pedagogy including essay and tutorial questions, case studies and an annotated bibliography.
