Marshall planned books on social improvement, adaptive upgrading, policy and polity which he never subsequently wrote. The thesis of Alfred Marshall: Progress and Politics is that a close study of such writings as Marshall did complete makes possible a very detailed reconstruction indeed of the important contribution which Marshall was capable of making to Victorian evolutionary thought (much in the shadow of Darwin and Spencer) and to on-going debate on the political element in political economy, where he reveals himself to have been as much an eclectic as was Adam Smith and as much a man of commitment as was T.H.Green.
