*Warning* the following message contains shameless promotion. Milton Friedman, Armien Alchian and William Baumol recently blurbed a book that I edited that is forthcoming on Oxford University Press called Entrepreneurial Economics: Bright Ideas from the Dismal Science. I would like to say that Friedman, Alchian, and Baumol are my friends - I certainly like the idea that people might think they are my friends - but in point of fact none of them would recognize me on the street, they are just distinguished economists who know a good book when they read one (and who were kind enough to give me some of their time and reputation.)
I agree 100% with Bryan by the way who writes "The better your names, the the better you can expect the book to be."! :) Quite seriously, there is real information in blurbs especially when they come from people with good reputations. Don't worry I'll be sure to tell you more about my book when it appears sometime early next year. :) Alex -- Dr. Alexander Tabarrok Vice President and Director of Research The Independent Institute 100 Swan Way Oakland, CA, 94621-1428 Tel. 510-632-1366, FAX: 510-568-6040 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
