‘What your superb work has made possible for me is to create a coursepack for a course on economic theory I have developed...I congratulate you and everyone who contributed to this towering achievement. The word “dictionary” doesn't begin to describe it. Summa Economica would have come closer!’ – Winifred B. Rothenberg, Department of Economics, Tufts University, USA
