 Collected Works of Nassau William Senior   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Nassau William Senior (1790-1864) - economist, critical essayist and government adviser - was a highly original classical economist in the era between Ricardo's Principles of 1817 and Mill's Principles of 1848.
Although Senior did not achieve the originality and influence of the leading economists of the classical school - Smith, Ricardo, and Malthus - he did make an enduring contribution on the development of economics.
Because of his varied interests and appointments Senior never produced a full-blown Principles of Economics, and it is only by means of a large critical selection such as this that Senior's importance can be re-evaluated by economics students and academics alike.
