Annotated Listing of New Books
Our policy is to annotate all English-language books on economics and related subjects that are sent to us. A very small number of foreign-language books are called to our attention and annotated by our consulting editors or others. Our staff does not monitor and order books published; therefore, if an annotation of a book does not appear six months after the publication date, please write to us or the publisher concerning the book. An Index of Authors of New Books appearing in the Annotated Listings will appear at the end of the General Index in the December issue. The annotations appearing in this section were written by Ms. Ann Norman. The articles appearing in the Subject Index in e-JEL, JEL on cd, and EconLit were classified under the direction of Professor Asatoshi Maeshiro, Editorial Consultant, assisted by Ms. Helen Lafferty, Dr. Charles McCann, Dr. Manhar Vyas, Ms. Jane Caldwell Wallace, Dr. Jerry Wells, and Ms. Katherine Wolfe.
