‘It is an excellent and well written group of essays, superbly edited by two of Mayer’s colleagues, Kevin Hoover and Steven Sheffrin. . . in many ways this volume mirrors Mayer’s vision of how economics ought to be practiced. What a thoughtful way to honor a meticulous, scholarly, and prolific colleague.’
