First Edition Signed
First edition of this collaboration between John Hicks, his wife Ursula, and Conrad Emanuel Victor Leser. Octavo, original wrappers. Associatation copy, inscribed on the front panel by John and Ursula Hicks to fellow economist Lionel Robbins, "L.C.R. from J.R.H. & U.K.H." The recipient, British economist Lionel Charles Robbins, was a prominent member of the economics department at the London School of Economics. Robbins and the wider â Robbins circleâ at the LSE during 1930s had an extraordinary influence on the Hicks' development as he matured into one of leading pure economic theorists of the twentieth century. Hicks credited Robbins with initiating his interest in economic theory, stating in his â Commentaryâ in the 1963 edition of The Theory of WagesÂthat, â â ¦ he moved me from Cassel to Walras and Pareto, to Edgeworth and Taussig to Wicksell and the Austrians â " with all of whom I was more at home at that stage than I was with Marshall and Pigouâ (Hicks, 306). Although Hicks left for Cambridge in 1935, he would later tell Robbins â that his years at LSE were â the formative years of my life as an economist; I do not think I have had as important years sinceâ â (Howson, 252). In fine condition. An exceptional association. Published in 1944, The Problem of Valuation For Rating is a collaboration between Mr. & Mrs. Hicks and German Econometrician C.E.V. Leser. "In 1935 [Hicks] married Ursula Webb, a distinguished public finance specialist, and he collaborated with her in the preparation of numerous works on public finance, its theory and its application to various countries" (New Palgrave).
