{"product_id":"the-coal-question-9781983404412","title":"The Coal Question","description":"William Stanley Jevons (1835-1882) was an English economist and logician. His work, along with similar discoveries made by Carl Menger in Vienna (1871) and by Leon Walras in Switzerland (1874), marked the opening of a new period in the history of economic thought. He published General Mathematical Theory of Political Economy in 1862, outlining the marginal utility theory of value. He was a prolific writer, and at the time of his death he occupied the foremost position in England both as a logician and as an economist. Jevons' general theory of induction was a revival of the theory laid down by Whewell and criticized by John Stuart Mill; but it was put in a new form. Amongst his other works are The Coal Question (1866), Methods of Social Reform and Other Papers (1883) and Letters and Journal (1886).\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50367060377874,"sku":"9781983404412","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_3a8fa371-54d1-4fdf-ab43-75b28b7b5771.jpg?v=1728484597","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-coal-question-9781983404412","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
