'Heilbroner and Milberg have written on great issues in a relatively small volume … Their central thesis is that historical events since then have not given rise either to an all-embracing vision or, as a corollary, a dominant analytical framework and approach. The object of the book is to analyse why this crisis - their word - has arisen and to suggest what the new vision and accompanying approach should be … the volume [is] stimulating and challenging. It reflects a shrewd understanding of the conceptual basis of the modern literature.' G. C. Harcourt, The Economic Journal
