----------------- HES POSTING ----------------- In relation to David Mitch remark on Friedman's attribution of the statement to Alfred Marshall I have found in my notes that much earlier something similar to: "It is not possible to be a good economist being only en economist" was written by John Stuart Mill in "Auguste Comte's Positivism". But once more I do not know detailed references. Witold Kwasnicki ------------ FOOTER TO HES POSTING ------------ For information, send the message "info HES" to [log in to unmask]
