This book covers diverse themes, including institutions and efficiency, choice and values, law and economics, development and policy, and social and economic measurement. Written in honour of the distinguished economist Satish K. Jain, this compilation of essays should appeal not only to students and researchers of economic theory but also to those interested in the design and evaluation of institutions and policy.
Satish Jain . . . combined intellectual brilliance, extreme modesty and a unique gentleness in a way that I have rarely encountered since. This volume of essays by many . . . leading lights of economic theory . . . is an appropriate tribute to this remarkable scholar and human being. — Abhijit Vinayak Banerjee, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
It is rare to find such a cluster of leading economic theorists coming together to pay tribute to an individual . . . [but then] Satish Jain is himself a rare economist . . . [with] a remarkable range of intellectual interests . . . [who] is known for his personal integrity and moral courage. — Kaushik Basu, Cornell University and the World Bank
The contributions are of the highest quality by scholars of great eminence. I believe this volume should be of great value to all advanced level students of economic theory. — Pulin B. Nayak, Delhi School of Economics
This volume of essays . . . which spans [Satish Jain’s] wide spectrum of interests in economic theory and is characterized by . . . rigour and precision . . . in analysis, is a splendid tribute to his contributions to the profession. — Deepak Nayyar, Jawaharlal Nehru University
