The University of Chicago Press Essays on Economics and Economists
How do economists decide what questions to address and how to choose their theories? How do they tackle the problems of the economic system and give advice on public policy? With these questions, Nobel laureate R.H. Coase reflects on some of the most fundamental concerns of economists over the past two centuries. In 15 essays, he evaluates the contributions of a number of figures, including Adam Smith, Alfred Marshall, Arnold Plant, Duncan Black, and George Stigler, as well as economists at the London School of Economics in the 1930s.

The University of Chicago Press The Firm, the Market, and the Law
Few other economists have been read and cited as much as R.H. Coase, a scholar who approached economics as a philosopher: with contemplation, careful scrutiny of real conditions and consideration of the practical implications of theory. "These essays bear rereading. Coase's careful attention to actual institutions not only offers deep insight into economics but also provides the best argument for Coase's methodological position. The clarity of the exposition and the elegance of the style also make them a pleasure to read and a model worthy of emulation."--Lewis A. Kornhauser, Journal of Economic Literature
