Great Economists Behind every economic theory lies an individual. Economists are a strange and eclectic group of individuals from all walks of life; men and women who across centuries have shaped and moulded the modern discipline of economics. This brand new ten article series aims to put names and faces to the authors of the ideas that you study in the classroom. The series begins in 18th Century Scotland with perhaps the most famous economist of all time, Adam Smith. I hope these articles will only serve to fuel your thirst for knowledge! Enjoy!
