Essay on the Nature of Trade in general (Higgs ed.)
- Richard Cantillon (author)
- Henry Higgs (author)
- William Stanley Jevons (author)
Cantillon wrote one major work, Essay on the Nature of Trade in General, which was regarded by Jevons and Hayek as an important early contribution to the theory of marginal utility. It lay forgotten for over 100 years until Jevons rediscovered it in the late 19th century. This edition is a bi-ligual French and English version with essays on the significance of Cantillon by Higgs and Jevons.
