Beschreibung:
Oslington tells the story of natural theology shaping political economy in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, emphasising continuing significance of theological issues for the discipline of economics. Early political economists such as Adam Smith, T.R. Malthus, Richard Whately, and William Whewell, extended the British scientific natural theology tradition of Francis Bacon, Robert Boyle, and Isaac Newton to the social world. This volume highlights aspects of the story that are neglected in standard histories of economics, histories of science, and contemporary theology.
