The book you see below is in the out-of-print category (and it is for sure a niche reading), but I think it is really interesting: 

William J. Baumol, Stephen M. Goldfeld (1968).  Precursors in Mathematical Economics: an Anthology. London School of Economics and Political Science

I hope it will be useful somehow!

Dear colleagues,

I am looking for readers/anthologies in the history of economic thought, that is compilations of texts by important economists (primary readings, not secondary literature), either general (texts by the most important economic writers of all time, i.e. a good text-book to accompany a general HET course), or of particular periods, regions, schools of thought or by subject, and in any language. 

I am aware of the volume edited by Steven Medema and Warren Samuels (The History of Economic Thought: A Reader, 2003), which is a great general anthology, and a volume about development economics edited by Marc Edelman and Angelique Haugerud (The Anthropology of Development and Globalization: From Classical Political Economy to Contemporary Neoliberalism, 2005).

Are there other such (in labour economics, monetary economics, etc., etc., or just general economics)?

Best regards,

Jérôme
