Career With Menger and Walras he was one of the three co-discoverers of marginal utility theory, but was also widely known for his textbooks on logic and his applied economic studies. In The Coal Question , he treated coal as the essential resource for the British industrial economy and argued that it was an exhaustible resource. His other quantitative studies, collected posthumously in Investigations , were largely concerned with economic fluctuations, which he examined through statistics on secular movements, business cycles and secular trends. His later work included that heroic but doomed attempts to trace business cycles to sunspot activity. His discovery of the marginal utility concept in 1862 aroused no interest, and not until

Search Site Search Card Catalog Search a Book Home ... and Help Biography of William Stanley Jevons (1835-82) Leon Walras in Laussane, Switzerland; and Carl Menger This statement marked a significant departure from the classical theory of value, which stated that value derived from the labor used to produce a product or from the cost of production more generally. Thus began the neoclassical school, which is still the dominant one in economics today. Jevons went on to define the "equation of exchange." This equation shows that for a consumer to be maximizing his or her utility, the ratio of the marginal utility of each item consumed to its price must be equal. If it is not, then he or she can, with a given income, reallocate consumption and get more utility. Take, for example, a consumer whose marginal utility from oranges is 10 "utils," and from cookies 4 utils, when oranges and cookies are both priced at 50 cents each. The consumer's ratio of marginal utility to price for oranges is 10/$.50, or 20, and for cookies is 4/$.50, or 8. Jevons would have said (and modern economists would agree) that this does not satisfy the equation of exchange and, therefore, the consumer will change purchases. Specifically, the consumer could increase utility by spending 50 cents less on cookies and using the money to buy oranges. He would lose 4 utils on the cookies, but gain 10 on the oranges, for a net gain of 6 utils. He will have this incentive to reallocate purchases until the equation of exchange holds (that is, until the marginal utility of oranges falls and the marginal utility of cookies rises to a point where, as a ratio to their prices, they are equal).

Turgot Home Books Encyclopedia Articles ... and Help Topic: Classics in Money and Banking Bagehot, Lombard Street Brief review Cantillon, Richard, Essays on the Nature of Commerce in General Brief Review Jevons, William Stanley, Money and the Mechanism of Exchange, Jevons's formative 1875 classic work came into print at the height of interest in gold, silver, and international monetary standards. Refreshingly written, widely quoted, and authoritatively researched, the book begins with the origins of money and works its way through to international banking and credit. Of particular interest are the clear discussions of Gresham's Law ( Ch. VIII ), competitively supplied money ( Ch. VII ), and fractional-reserve- and Free-banking ( Ch. XVII-XVIII and XXIV ). Also: If you think the only reason to not use coins worth their weight in precious metal is their weight, I recommend Chapter X for an excellent reminder of additional drawbacks. Jevons is best known for his work on marginal utility, which he describes with customary succinctness in the book. His interest in the way the forces of the market evolve toward an equilibrium without (and often in opposition to) government influence runs throughout the book.

Permission to use material from the article has been granted. Accompanying websites Bert Mosselmans Abstract of Cracking the Canon: William Stanley Jevons and the Deconstruction of "Ricardo" Editorial Discussion Anthony Brewer Bert Mosselmans Robert Young Reproduction and Scarcity Hidden Agenda of the "Marginal Revolution" The 'marginal revolution' should not be seen as a sudden shock; it should rather be described as a gradual process. Jevons should be seen as a transitional economist. Autonomous intellectual developments, however, can provide only an unsatisfactory explanation. We argue that historical actors perceive a changed environment and conclude that existing theories no longer are applicable. For this purpose, we examine the difference between the perception of the environment in Malthus and Ricardo on the one hand, and Jevons on the other - a shift in perspective from a reproductive environment with internal scarcity towards a non-reproductive environment with external scarcity. In a reproductive environment the actions of human beings are responsible for the rise of scarcity, whereas in a non-reproductive environment, scarcity is determined externally.

William Stanley Jevons and the climate of Australia Neville Nicholls Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre, Melbourne, Australia Australian Meteorological Magazine, 47, 285-293, December 1998 Abstract William Stanley Jevons published the first thorough and scientific study of the climate of Australia, in 1859 after only five years in Australia (working as an assayer for the Mint in Sydney). Excerpts from the Jevons study, along with comments on his conclusions from a late 20 th century perspective, are provided. Jevons was a most remarkable person, with an inexhaustible curiosity and a highly developed intuitive sense for recognising patterns in sparse data sets. Brief descriptions of Jevons’s other contributions to economics, logic, the philosophy of science, statistics, and photography, are provided, along with some biographical information. Introduction The first thorough description of the Australian climate was published in 1859 by William Stanley Jevons, a gold assayer at the Sydney branch of the Royal Mint. Jevons was described by Lord Lionel Robbins as "one of the great Englishmen of the nineteenth century" (Robbins, 1932), not because of his meteorological work, but because he developed what has become known as the marginal utility theory of value, and because of his contributions to statistics and logic. His writings on economics were so well regarded that Lord Maynard Keynes delivered a centenary lecture on Jevons's life and work as an economist and statistician (Keynes, 1936). Inoue and White (1993) provide a complete bibliography of works published by Jevons.
