'This volume pulls together a remarkable collection of contributors designed to challenge the positive-normative dichotomy in economic methodology... The intent of this publication is to provide a reference manual for those seeking insights into the connections between economics and ethics. It succeeds in that goal and should become a starting point for anyone who believes that mainstream economics needs methodological reorientation... Anyone interested in ethics and economic methodology would do well to have this reference book handy. Highly recommended.' -- J. Halteman, Choice 'This new Handbook of Economics and Ethics makes a substantial contribution as a wide-ranging up-to-date reference work, including original developments, on these two fundamentally interconnected fields. This contribution is particularly timely, given the increasing attention being paid to economics as a moral science. The Handbook contains seventy-five expert entries on subjects ranging from the history of economics and philosophy to conceptual analysis of ethics in various aspects of modern economics, while representing a diversity of views.' -- Sheila Dow, University of Stirling, UK
