Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society, Vol. 8 In an address delivered some two years ago and since then published, I made an attempt to estimate the influence on economic ideas of the great advances effected in the methods of modern logicians. Whether I succeeded I do not know. But the moral which I sought to point was that economists of more than one shade of opinion would do well to criticise their categories, and to see to it that they do not confuse what are in reality only valuable working conceptions with concrete realities. My purpose in this paper is to pursue the same method, and to suggest that, in yet another region, abstractions are apt to be hypostatised into realities. Both in daily parlance and in mathematical science the word "infinite" is freely employed. Yet this expression is, as a rule, either not defined at all, or, if defined, employed in a special sense which excludes what the word means when used in other connections. An infinite series suggests, or ought to suggest, nothing analogous to an infinite God. The former may be limited by a finite quantity which the sum of the members of the series, though themselves increased in number without limit, cannot exceed.
