Reviews

'I can only but repeat that reading these stories of life and work of these exemplary economists in their own words is a great joy. And not only that. It provides the reader with an insight into the development of our profession at the microlevel in a lively way.'
*A. Heertje, The Economic Journal*

'. . . a most enjoyable read.'
*Peter Groenewegen, History of Economics Review*
