Although often mistakenly referred to as the "Second Edition," the 1948 offered here is not a textual second edition (i.e., there are no changes to the text save for the 1948 date on the title page, and the words "Second Printing" on both the copyright page and the front flap of the dust jacket). This highly influential book, which was based on Samuelson's doctoral thesis, "provided a toolbox of techniques that were to become standard in postwar economics. In particular, it established the importance of deriving comparative statics resultswhat happens to an equilibrium when something changesand provided methods for doing this. A recurring theme in the book was the need for economic theories to be 'operational'to have testable implications" (ANB). Provenance: On the front free endpaper is the prior owner name R.W.

Oliver (1922-1998), who earned his PhD in economics at Princeton in 1957, was a Professor of Economics at Caltech from 1959-1988,and worked as an economist at the World Bank.

An exceptional example with noted provenance. Based on Samuelson's 1941 doctoral dissertation at Harvard University, Foundations of Economic Analysis "drastically redirected the advanced study of economics toward greater and more productive use of mathematics" (Cooper, 1997). Through the work, Samuelson sought to demonstrate a common mathematical structure underlying multiple branches of economics from two basic principles: maximizing behavior of agents (such as of utility by consumers and profits by firms) and stability of equilibrium as to economic systems (such as markets or economies). Among other contributions, it advanced the theory of index numbers and generalized welfare economics. The title of this work "was meant to be exactly as ambitious as it sounds, and the bookâs impact on the profession has largely justified it. For the first time in a book in English on economic principles, the mathematics, instead of being relegated to an appendix, provided the skeleton of the argument. Fifty years after it was written, the Foundations (together with Hicksâ Value and Capital) is still one of the most inspiring classics of general equilibrium economics (Niehans, History of Economic Theory, 423).
