Abstract
The article presents an essay setting polymath William Whewell's economic writings in a larger context and also argues that his work on the subject of economics makes sense more as part of a wider scientific project that has roots in the background of British natural theology. Topics discussed include Whewell best known among economists as mathematical economics' early contributor.
