30419. Keirstead, Burton Seeley, 1907-1973. The theory of economic change. Toronto, Macmillan Company of Canada, 1948, xi, 386pp., very good brown cloth, a few pages dog-eared at start, $12
The author acknowledges assistance from Harold INNIS of the University of Toronto. Innis provided a foreword to Keirstead's book on price theory and his interest here in historical change suggests an influence of Innis into the realm of economic theory. On the other hand: Simon Kuznets (AAPSS, 1950) acknowledged that Keirstead had addressed an important problem: "long-term growth of large economic aggregates-a problem the neglect of which since the days of classical economics and Karl Marx means a serious gap in the economic knowledge of today." His solutions and his review of the literature do not overly impress Kuznets but he nevertheless recommends the book as quite thought-provoking. Keirstead is a fluid writer, having published two murder mysteries at the start of his career, as well as much publicist work for lexica and television. According to Economica (1951): "A major theme is that innovations, which together with population growth are said to be at the heart of economic development, eventually provoke monopolistic combinations. These suppress further inno- vations and economic progress ceases.".
