This book agrees with the assertion that neo-classical economics offers vital descriptive and explanatory insights. However, the properties of the theory are quite unrealistic. As in chemistry, physics, and other disciplines, scientific advances require willingness to challenge old theories, and to discard them when they fail to resolve selected problems. The basic purpose of "A Theory of the Firm in Economic Space" is to move towards a new microecocomics, one which adds distance to time in its framework. The result is a focus on oligopoly markets and a more realistic system of thought than that embodied in neo-classical microeconomics.
