Hardback. Condizione: New. This highly original new book examines the scientific status of economics from the perspective of practising economists.

It examines the tension between economics as the logic of rational choice and as a predictive science, that is reason and reality respectively.It surveys the five most influential schools of thought in the methodology of economics, with special emphasis on theory appraisal: logical positivism, instrumentalism, a priorism, scientific realism and rhetorical analysis.
