H.S. Foxwell. (In Memoriam).

First edition of this in memoriam of Herbert Somerton Foxwell. Octavo, original wrappers. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author to John Neville Keynes on the front panel, "To John Neville Keynes for auld lang syne. J. Bonar 16th January 1937." The recipient, John Neville Keynes, was an English economist and philosopher best known for his influential work in economic methodology, particularly The Scope and Method of Political Economy (1891), which helped clarify the distinction between positive and normative economics. A longtime administrator and lecturer at the University of Cambridge, he played a formative intellectual role in shaping the academic environment in which his son, economist John Maynard Keynes, developed, while also contributing independently to debates on logic, probability, and the philosophical foundations of economic science. In very good condition.
