The book is by far the best choice one can make for a course on mathematics for economists. It is exemplary in finding the right balance between mathematics and economic examples. Dr Roelof J Stroeker, Erasmus University, Rotterdam. The writing style is superb it manages to allow intuitive understanding whilst not sacrificing mathematical precision and rigour. Dr Steven Cook, University of Wales Swansea Essential Mathematics for Economic Analysis provides an invaluable introduction to mathematical analysis and linear algebra for economists. Its main purpose is to help students acquire the mathematical skills they need in order to read the less technical literature associated with economic problems. The coverage is comprehensive, ranging from elementary algebra to more advanced material, whilst focusing on all the core topics usually taught in undergraduate courses on mathematics for economists.

Early research for my Doctor of Philosophy thesis ‘Consistent Planning and International Welfare Economics’ was on optimal growth and ‘agreeable’ plans for infinite time horizons. The thesis also included results on dynamic choice. A related early interest was consistent (or ‘perfect’) cooperative solutions to extensive games.
Later work was in static welfare economics.
In social choice theory a way was found to satisfy the essential conditions of Kenneth Arrow’s Impossibility Theorem without a dictator
ship by incorporating interpersonal comparisons of utility. In welfare economics proper, the incentive constraints which arise because individuals’ personal characteristics are unobservable were explored for economies with many consumers. Such constraints were shown generally to exclude the lump-sum transfers which could otherwise be used to optimise the distribution of income.
This work implies that commodity taxes, income taxes, and other ‘distortions’ are not necessarily truly inefficient after all, once such incentive constraints are recognised. More recently some work has been done on cost-benefit analysis and its integration with a general theory of policy reform.
In normative theory, it is natural to assume that behaviour can be entirely explained by its consequences. This apparently very weak condition, appropriately formulated, has recently been shown to imply many of the usual properties of ‘rational’ choice, including expected utility maximisation in the face of uncertainty.
In collective choice theory, this ‘consequentialist’ approach appears to justify utilitarianism.
My latest interests include sequence economies, starting with existence of temporary Walrasian equilibrium, properties of incentive-compatible allocation rules, and welfare questions arising when there is uncertainty and incomplete information. Ultimately I intend working toward a welfare economic theory rich enough to incorporate macroeconomic phenomena and to allow more realistic microeconomic analysis of macroeconomic policies.
