摘要:Alfred Marshall (1842-1924) was one of the earliest professional
economists at the University of Cambridge in the nineteenth century,
and a founder of the Cambridge School of economics which nurtured
leading economists such as A. C. Pigou and J. M. Keynes. However, in his
early research, before becoming a professional economist, Marshall
explored what psychology had to say about the human faculties (1867-
1868). The purpose of my PhD dissertation is to argue that Marshall’s
economics was greatly influenced by this early research in psychology
