Natural Images in Economic Thought
"The book is a good reference for teachers of the history of economic thought or philosophy of economics." The Southern Economic Journal
This 1994 collection of interdisciplinary essays was the first to investigate how images in the history of the natural and physical sciences have been used to shape the history of economic thought. The contributors, historians of science and economics alike, document the extent to which scholars have drawn on physical and natural science to ground economic ideas and evaluate the role and importance of metaphors in the structure and content of economic thought.

"The book is a good reference for teachers of the history of economic thought or philosophy of economics." The Southern Economic Journal
"...I recommend this volume to anyone interested in a lively debate about the intellectual cross-pollination between the natural and social sciences. Many of the essays are provocative." John C. Moorhouse, Reason Papers
