Publisher's Synopsis
The New Cambridge Curriculum In Economics And Associated Branches Of Political Science: Its Purpose And Plan (1903) is a book written by Alfred Marshall. This book provides a complete description of the new curriculum in economics and associated branches of political science that was introduced at Cambridge University in 1903. The author explains the purpose and plan of this new curriculum, which was designed to provide students with a more comprehensive and practical understanding of economics and its related fields. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the new curriculum. Marshall begins by discussing the need for a new approach to teaching economics, which he argues should be more focused on practical applications and less on abstract theory. He then goes on to describe the various courses that make up the new curriculum, including microeconomics, macroeconomics, economic history, and statistics.Throughout the book, Marshall emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary study, arguing that economics cannot be fully understood without a thorough grounding in related fields such as history, sociology, and political science. He also stresses the importance of practical experience, advocating for the inclusion of internships and other hands-on learning opportunities in the curriculum.Overall, The New Cambridge Curriculum In Economics And Associated Branches Of Political Science: Its Purpose And Plan (1903) provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the new curriculum in economics and its related fields that was introduced at Cambridge University in the early 20th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of economics education and the development of economic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
