Abstract: The book that consists of 240 pages including the bibliography and contains the following sections and chapters; The Foreword: This contains a few brief remarks regarding the philosophy of science and philosophy of economics. The remarks are, in principle, both relevant and appropriate in terms of the “general principles” with regard to science, the science of economics, the nature of science as well as the duties of a scientist. The author’s remarks underline that “neoclassical economics” which is widely acknowledged as the school that economics seems to represent, is, in fact, a more “ideological model” than a true scientific and realistic basis for economics and, in fact, favors the “dominant classes” in the society.
