Summary This major original reference work includes specially commissioned articles on the lives and writings of women who made significant contributions to economics, from Edith Abbott to Irini Zafiriou. It sheds new light on the rich, but too often neglected, heritage of women's analysis of economic issues and participation in the discipline of economics. In addition to those who wrote in English, some notable Danish, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Swedish women economists are included. This book will transform widely-held views about the past role of women in economics, and will stimulate further research in this exciting but underdeveloped field. It is dedicated to the memory of Michle Pujol, a pioneer in the field.
