An Eponymous Dictionary of Economics by Julio Segura
Julio Segura’s eponymous dictionary of economics
A interesting and user-friendly reference work, An Eponymous Dictionary of Economics covers all aspects of economics, from Adam Smith’s Problem to Minkowski’s Theorem to Zellner’s Estimator. Eponymy, the practice of giving the scientist’s name to all or part of what they have discovered, has many intriguing aspects, but there have been relatively few attempts to address the topic lexicographically in science and art. The eponymous dictionary of economics has never before been produced in any language. The ordinary economist will likely only be familiar with a very small number of the hundreds of eponyms, much alone be able to grasp them. The Dictionary, which describes all pertinent economic eponyms, addresses this gap in a digestible volume. There are also a few uncommon but intriguing eponyms included, several entries contain cross-references, and each entry has a brief bibliography for additional reading. A unique Dictionary put together by Julio Segura and Carlos Rodriguez Braun will be a priceless and much-appreciated reference work for economic journalists, economists, and researchers at all levels of academia, in all areas of economics and its related topics.
