'Kwang Ng is the leading proponent of the use of cardinal, interpersonally comparable utilities in economics. In this book he both defends their use and illustrates their application. Ng's analysis is both lucid and provocative. A fascinating journey into applied welfare economics.' - Professor Dennis Mueller, former President of the Public Choice Society and the Industrial Organization Society, USA 'Yew-Kwang Ng has been one of the most original minds studying the foundations of economic policy analysis. His work has now been brought together in one place, where the interrelations of his ideas can be most fruitfully seen. His analyses bring together the philosophical foundations and the elements of positive economic analysis to clarify the rules by which good public decisions about the economy can be made. It will have ideas new to every reader.' - Kenneth J.Arrow, Professor of Economics, Stanford University
