' Is There Progress in Economics? should be given relatively high marks. First, the quality of the papers is quite high, and second, the editors did a relatively good job of selecting, arranging and editing the contributions so that the volume really does focus on the question in its title. The editors' introduction also contributes to the overall effect by attempting to tie all of the papers together into a reasonably tight bundle.', 'Is There Progress in Economics? should be given relatively high marks.

Synopsis
The Foundation Level Stories are part of the third wave of HeadworkReading: special needs reading resources for Key Stage 3. These stories come inat a reading level below Level 1. They offer 350-450 words per story in Pack Aand 650-800 words per story in Pack B at reading ages of 6-7. Large type andplenty of black and white illustrations aid reluctant readers at this very lowlevel. Progression of reading stamina is provided between Packs A and B whichthemselves act as stepping stones to Level 1 stories already published., This thought-provoking book discusses the concept of progress in economics and investigates whether any advance has been made in its different spheres of research. The authors look back at the history, successes and failures of their respective fields and thoroughly examine the notion of progress from an epistemological and methodological perspective. The idea of progress is particularly significant as the authors regard it as an essentially contested concept which can be defined in many ways - theoretically or empirically; locally or globally; or as encouraging or impeding the existence of other research traditions. The authors discuss the idea that for progress to make any sense there must be an accumulation of knowledge built up over time rather than the replacement of ideas by each successive generation. Accordingly, they are not concerned with estimating the price of progress, reminiscing in the past, or assessing what has been lost. Instead they apply the complex mechanisms and machinery of the discipline to sub-fields such as normative economics, monetary economics, trade and location theory, Austrian economics and classical economics to critically assess whether progress has been made in these areas of research. Bringing together authoritative and wide-ranging contributions by leading scholars, this book will challenge and engage those interested in philosophy, economic methodology and the history of economic thought. It will also appeal to economists in general who are interested in the advancement of their profession., This text discusses the concept of progress in economics and investigates whether any advance had been made in its different spheres of research.
