Abstract: Abstract The introductory chapter provides a capsule biography of Gunnar Myrdal’s life, a sketch of his personality—that of an egocentric workaholic—and an outline of the scope of the study, ranging from Myrdal’s doctoral dissertation to the end of his life. It sketches the main steps of his career and accounts for his major works.
