Purposeful Engineering Economics


The title, “Purposeful Engineering Economics,” was chosen to emphasize the
importance of the intentions behind any economic action. To explain this idea
adequately requires investigation well beyond engineering economics, per se. In
fact, much of the narrative will range over a wide subject area to draw from works
in sociology, philosophy, political economy, history, and even religion for background
materials. I am not aware of any previous attempt to “explain” engineering
economy this way.
This book is intended primarily for instructors of engineering economy classes,
particularly those for civil engineering students. It is assumed that the instructor
will be well versed in the methods of engineering economy but is interested to
include the wider perspective of catallactics in the course. This book will suggest
ways to do this; it is not intended to replace a basic engineering economy
textbook.
