Alfred Marshall (Circa 1797 - October 2, 1868) was a United States Representative from Maine. He was born in New Hampshire about 1797. He served as a member of the Maine House of Representatives in 1827, 1828, 1834, and 1835. He ... served as a general in the Maine militia.
Alfred Marshall (1842-1924) was the author of Principles of Economics, which was for many years the primary introductory economics text used in English speaking countries. Marshall, who began as a mathematician, originated many of the ideas currently embodied in introductory microeconomics textbooks.

The NASB - NIV Parallel New Testament, from renowned British scholar Alfred Marshall, offers renowned biblical text analysis through comparison of the original and modern languages.The Interlinear NASB - NIV Parallel New Testament does three things for you. It sets the New American Standard Bible with its "literal correspondence" approach side by side with the New International Version and its "dynamic equivalency" approach, allowing you to easily compare the two translations. It directly relates Greek words in the Nestle's Greek text to their corresponding translations in the NASB and NIV texts. And it allows easier reading of the Greek New Testament. These advantages offer you a better understanding of the Bible. This proven study tool uses Alfred Marshall's interlinear English text -- the standard, widely used literal translation of the Nestle's Greek text, 21st edition.
Alfred Marshall understood that supply was determined by costs of production. Because producers face rising marginal costs, they must be offered higher prices to induce them to sell more (increased quantity supplied). The responsiveness of quantity supplied to changes in price (the price elasticity of supply) was, according to Marshall, determined by how much time sellers had to adjust production. The division of time into three periods, as appears in the text, was a distinction first offered by Marshall.
Alfred Marshall was born in Bermondsey, a London suburb, on 26 July 1842. He died at Balliol Croft, his Cambridge home of many years, on 13 July 1924 at the age of 81. Professor of Political Economy at the University of Cambridge from 1885 to 1908, he was the founder of the Cambridge School of Economics which rose to great eminence in the 1920s and 1930s: A.C. Pigou and J.M. Keynes, the most important figures in this development, were among his pupils. Marshall’s magnum opus, the Principles of Economics (Marshall, 1890a) was published in 1890 and went through eight editions in his lifetime.
Alfred Marshall was born in London on July 26, 1842, the son of a cashier at the Bank of England. At Cambridge he abandoned plans to enter the Anglican clergy and graduated in mathematics. Elected to a Cambridge fellowship, Marshall planned then to pursue molecular physics. Instead, he was drawn first to metaphysics, particularly ethics, which he studied in Germany for a year, then to psychology, and finally to economics as a practical means for implementing ethics.
