<i>'. . . as one reviewer said of the second edition, what was an interesting experiment became a standard work of reference. With this third edition it is now a vital resource for the profession. . .'</i>
- Roger Middleton, Journal of the History of Economic Thought,
<i>'Thumbing through the entries in </i>Who's Who in Economics<i> does give a unique insight into the concerns and findings of the world's leading economists. . .'</i>
- Robert Whaples, EH.Net,
As with the previous editions, each of the entries is written by the entrants themselves and gives pertinent biographical data, principal fields of interest, chief publications and a statement of their principal contributions to economics as they - and not the editors - perceive them. This edition includes only living economists whose articles, published in the period 1990-2000, have been most frequently cited and as such it is the most up-to-date biographical dictionary of the leading players in the economics profession.
- a thoroughly revised, updated and extended fourth edition containing the most cited economists from 1990-2000
- the only biographical dictionary of major economists to appear in any language
- provides critical information on over 700 living economists
- five appendices, including indices of principal fields of interest, country of residence, year of birth, current affiliation, and first degree and doctorate.
