Statistics and the German State, 1900-1945: The Making of Modern Economic Knowledge (Cambridge Studies in Modern Economic History) Book

An interpretation of the period of dramatic statistical innovation between 1900 and 1945.

New ways of measuring the economy were inspired both by contemporary developments in macroeconomic theory and the needs of government.

Based on the German example, Tooze argues for a more wide-ranging reconsideration of the history of modern economic knowledge.Read More
