Solution

The correct option is B Robbins

Lionel Robbins was a British economist who proposed a very scientific definition on economics where he emphasised on setting up an effective relationship between the human wants and scarce means to maximise the satisfaction of most of the unlimited wants in the economy.
Therefore, it described economics as a neutrality between various wants in the economy as it studies and solves the problem of scarcity.
