This three volume set gathers together selected key articles in evolutionary economics, ordering these into domains of micro analysis - concerned with agents - meso analysis - which is concerned with rule populations and trajectories - and macro analysis, which is about the structure and development of the whole economy. This authoritative collection, with an original introduction by the editors, will be of interest to scholars and researchers seeking to understand how evolutionary economics fits together and who seek to advance such an integrated approach.
