Adam Smith’s Daughters

Bette Polkinghorn and Dorothy Lampen Thomson

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This new and expanded edition of a classic work draws our attention to the often neglected role women have played in the development of economics. The work and intellectual history of eight prominent women economists of the eighteenth to twentieth centuries are studied to reveal how they strove to become successful contributors to economic science.
