Bibliographie Robert Torrens

Avertissement

Contrairement à la bibliographie analytique publiée par Lionel Robbins, cette bibliographie, aussi exhaustive que possible, fait uniquement références aux premières éditions. Mais elle contient des titres qui n’apparaissent pas dans celle de Lionel Robbins. Entre crochet [] sont données les références à des éditions du 20e siècle, antérieures donc aux Collected Works1, avec A. M. Kelley comme éditeur (sauf 1 fois, no 23).
