'Since the early 1970s Buz Brock has been a leading figure in economic theory. These essays reflect his enormous talent, great imagination and modelling skills, but they also reflect his dedication to produce economic models that are well motivated by data and that can be used to discuss substantive economic issues. All students of modern economics will benefit from studying the papers in this collection.'
