J.N. Wolfe was professor of economics at the University of Edinburgh until his retirement.
-This is a beautifully printed book containing twenty-two papers,
some of which are excellent and most of which are worthwhile. . . .
There really is no satisfactory way of reviewing this volume. Hicks
has made serious contributions to so many branches of our subject
that it is natural to find a very wide variety of topics covered in
this volume, which takes on the appearance of an exceptionally fat
issue of a good journal of economic theory. . . . Professor Hicks
will surely be satisfied with the much deserved tributes here
assembled.- --F. H. Hahn, Economica -This is a fitting tribute to
Sir John Hicks, who has perhaps done more than anybody else for the
development of contemporary economics in the Western world. Most of
the great contributions of Sir John to our knowledge in almost all
branches of economic theory are being developed and amplified in
the essays of this outstanding collection. J. N. Wolfe, the editor,
should be congratulated on a very find job.- --Gerhard Tintner,
Journal of Political Economy -The occasion for this volume
honouring Sir John Hicks is his retirement from the Drummond
Professorship at the University of Oxford. The 22 papers arranged
alphabetically by author, together with an entertaining
introduction by the editor, mark the occasion well.- --Thomas J.
Finn, The Canadian Journal of Economics -This volume. . .
represents the extent and dimension of the influences which Sir
John Hicks has brought to the crucial problems of economic theory.
Equally influential contemporary economists have contributed
twenty-two papers whose impact will be felt for a long time.-
--Ryuzo Sato, Journal of Economic Literature -This festschrift
marks the occasion of the retirement of Sir John Hicks from the
Drummond Professorship at Oxford. The twenty-two papers in this
volume are notable not only because of their distinguished authors,
but also because an unusually large percentage (for a festschrift)
are of relatively high quality.- --Joseph E. Stiglitz, The Journal
of Finance
