Principles of Economics, Book 2- Some Fundamental Notions

Explore the essential concepts of economics through Alfred Marshalls pivotal textbook, Principles of Economics. First published in 1890, this landmark work emerged from nearly a decade of dedication and insight. Marshalls initial volume received global recognition, establishing him as a preeminent economist of his time by skillfully weaving together the principles of supply and demand, marginal utility, and production costs into a comprehensive framework. Although the anticipated second volume—meant to delve into foreign trade, money, trade fluctuations, taxation, and collectivism—remained unpublished, the influence of Marshalls work continues to shape economic discourse today. This recording is based on the eighth edition, released in 1920.
