I just got the Warsh book today to review. I like some of his columns & have finished the first chapter. It seems that Paul Romer discovered the importance of non-rival goods in 1990 -- as if others had not written about the subject before.
When Romer published his work, I showed him what I was doing. His only remark was that I was taking it further than he did, which could be, but almosts certainly was not, a compliment. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail michael at ecst.csuchico.edu
